    Residents are encouraged to have their say on revised plans for the transformation of Fernadell Park.

    These revised plans were created following a first round of community consultation in mid-2021. Feedback from the first exhibition was very positive and Council has listened carefully to community suggestions. Due to the importance of this project to the community, and the significance of the changes, Council has decided to reexhibit the plans for further feedback.

    These changes include:

    Drainage

    - Fill the northern channel and install underground drainage pipe to allow for greater use of the site.

    Sports Infrastructure

    - Multi-use courts relocated to the northern side of the park, closer to the sports amenities building and parking.

    - Multi-use courts will be for basketball/netball and will not be fenced

    - Cricket practice nets adjacent to the field and off street parking area added

    - Training field increased from 70x40m to 70x50m

    - Training field moved further north to avoid potential conflict with community building users

    Parking

    - off street parking at Bootles Lane increased from approximately 40 spaces to 93 spaces*

    - 90 degree parking on Bootles Lane reduced from approximately 65 spaces to 58 spaces*

    - 90 degree parking off Fernadell Drive increased from approximately 40 spaces to 42 spaces*

    * parking quantity subject to detailed design

    Passive recreation

    - Outdoor gym area, play space and youth space co-located

    - Play space adjacent to the picnic area and closer to public toilets at the community building

    - Sandstone viewing platform replaces the deck over the water body

    - Deletion of possible future structure over water body

    - Fenced dog off leash area divided into areas for small and large dogs

    The community can view the revised Masterplan and have their say below until Sunday 12 June 2022.

    HAVE YOUR SAY HERE

    A public hearing to discuss the changes will also be held at the Pitt Town Sports Club on Monday 16 May 2022 from 7pm. Details on how to book will be posted here closer to the date.
