WF Jackson Park Thirroul Concept Plan

  11/03/2010  - 26/03/2010 
Wollongong City Council is seeking community feedback on a concept plan to return Thirroul’s WF Jackson Park to community open space.
 
Council has lodged a Development Application to demolish the old Thirroul Library, Baby Health Clinic and Senior Citizen’s building located at the park.
 
All three buildings have been closed to the public due to their poor condition and were flagged for demolition when Council opened the new state of the art $10.5 million Thirroul District Library and Community Centre in 2009. 
 
Once the buildings have been demolished, Council will turn WF Jackson Park into a recreational space for the community.
 
In the coming weeks Councils will consult with the community to gather ideas on a draft Landscape Concept Plan for the Park
 
The Concept Plan proposes to create a green space to link Thirroul’s two commercial centres. It will include open space, trees and an area set aside for possible art exhibitions or market stalls.
 
To view the Landscape Concept Plan or find out more, come along to a Community Engagement Kiosk at WF Jackson Park, Thirroul, on Saturday, 13 March between 10am and 12 noon.
 
You can provide your comments on the Landscape Concept Plan to Council by attending the kiosk or completing the feedback form on the right. All submissions must be received by Friday, 26 March 2010.
