Why This Project Matters

Brown Park is one of the Shire’s most significant recreation precincts. Participation in sport across the Shire continues to grow. Local clubs need facilities that support training, competition and community events.

Brown Park plays many roles for our community. Feedback has shown there is strong support for improved facilities for sport, youth, social connection and nature‑based experiences. The Master Plan will ensure future changes are well‑designed and reflect what the community values most.

This project will:

• Improve facilities for local sporting clubs
• Enhance public open space for families and visitors
• Support health and wellbeing
• Improve safety and accessibility
• Strengthen the precinct as a community gathering place

By planning ahead, the Shire can deliver upgrades that meet community expectations while protecting the natural setting of Brown Park.
