  • Stage 4b, Reconciliation Garden
  • Stage 5, Western/Junior Sporting Fields
  • Stage 6, Dog Fenced Off-Leash Areas

Interim report

An interim report was submitted to Council's Ordinary Meeting on 27 November 2023 on the sequencing of future stages at Boongaree.

The interim report can be viewed via Council's meeting Agenda and Minutes(External link) web page.

Council resolved:

  • That the sequencing of future stages at Boongaree requires further consideration because of revised cost estimates and site constraints.
  • To undertake engagement activities with sporting groups that use the existing sportsgrounds and amenities at Boongaree, including the Touch Football Club, Cricket Club, Soccer Club and Rugby League Club.
  • To undertake engagement activities with Aboriginal stakeholders, including local Aboriginal land councils, Elders and Aboriginal communities with a connection to lands and waters in and around Berry, in relation to the concept design for the proposed Reconciliation Garden.

The outcomes of these engagement activities will assist Council to agree on priorities for the delivery of future stages at Boongaree.

A report on the outcomes of these engagement activities, and a proposed revised sequencing plan for the delivery of future stages at Boongaree will be provided to Council over the coming months.

This report, and proposed revised sequencing plan, will be available on Council's Agenda and Minutes web page.
