Consultation has concluded

Under the Stronger Communities Fund Major Projects Program funding has been approved to construct a new playground in Bombala.

This playground will be designed as an 'all-abilities' facility.

There are 2 options available for the location of this playground, and we are asking the community to complete this short survey to determine the most suitable location.

Analysis
Option 1
Therry St		Option 2
Ginger Leigh Park
Benefits

  • Closer to the commercial centre of Bombala

  • Will create additional economic development for the local Businesses.

  • Location adjacent to public toilet facilities.

  • Established car parking space adjacent to the facility.

  • Extension of existing facility.

  • Existing BBQ and toilet facilities available.

  • Adjacent to the Caravan park, so may lead to increase utilisation of both facilities.

Obstacles

  • Will see a reduction of car parking spaces outside the Swimming Pool Complex.

  • Development Application required because of Zone restrictions.

  • Car parking area will need to be upgraded.

  • Development Application may be required because of Zone restrictions.
