This survey has now concluded. Thank you to everyone who took the time to comment on the proposed concept designs. Please find below an update on the project.
The community was overall very positive about the concept
designs presented for the proposed new Charlestown Leisure Centre. Council has
listened to your feedback and incorporated changes into the designs.
Some changes to the designs included creating a lighter feel
to the structure, a more efficient layout of the pool, some carpark layout
changes, and the additions of a spa, steam room, sauna, plus a Changing Places
room specially designed for those with high needs. The proposed 50m outdoor
pool now accommodates men’s competition water polo.

Regional Planning Panel, with an expected response anticipated by early 2016.
