Have Your Say On Your New Park
Council is currently consulting with the community on a new park at Pinaroo
Place/Kullah Parade and a new pocket park on Mowbray Road.
A new park has been designed following approval from NSW Land and Housing Corporation to acquire six lots in Pinaroo Place and the proposed closure of the Pinaroo Place cul-de-sac. When combined with the existing park, this space will provide a 6,300 square metre recreation area. As part of the agreement, the existing park on Girraween Avenue will be transferred to the NSW Land and Housing Corporation.
The community is being encouraged to provide feedback on the following areas:-
- Post: PO Box 20, Lane Cove 1595;
- Fax: 9911 3600; or
- Email
Submissions will be received by Council until Friday 27 October 2017
For further assistance please contact Council’s Landscape Architect on 9911 3563.
If you would like to be kept informed about the progress of this proposal following the consultation period, please submit your email address. Alternatively, you can check the ‘Previous Consultations’ section of the website at any time after the consultation closes for updated information in relation to this or any past consultation item.
