Summary

The Willawarrin Recreation Ground Master Plan proposes upgrades across key areas including sports fields, equestrian and camping facilities, community spaces and access paths.

Improvements include better drainage, lighting, seating, storage, access and amenities to support community use and events.

A new multi-purpose court will replace the tennis courts. The plan was shaped through consultation with local users and residents.

Master Plans are a key tool for securing grant funding and are used to efficiently provide the right facilities for our communities.
