Immediately after the fires, the Conjola Community Recovery Association (CCRA) began working to support the community’s recovery.

The CCRA engaged TAKT Studio for Architecture to develop a series of draft master plans for the area. These draft plans are known as the:

Community consultation was undertaken, and the draft plans were presented to Shoalhaven City Council for endorsement. Councillors chose not to adopt the plans in full. However, some components of the plans did receive broad community support.

    Council’s vision for the Shoalhaven is to emerge from this bushfire and its impacts in a better, stronger and more resilient position than it was prior to the bushfire emergency.

    Council understands that playgrounds offer opportunities for kids and parents to collaborate and engage with each other.

    Council are seeking the community's feedback on a shovel ready design for Hoylake Grove Reserve playground which was affected by bushfire at Conjola Park earlier this year.

    This design is ready to be constructed and will take approximately 12 weeks (weather permitting).

    To view the concept visit the Photo Gallery on this page.

    Thank you for your input, the survey is now closed.

    Construction is guided by the Community Infrastructure Strategic Plan 2017 ‐ 2036 when assessing the requirements of playground provisions.
