Update on Sanctuary Point Library project

Council has resolved to explore alternative sites for a new library to service the Bay and Basin area.

At the Ordinary Meeting of Council held on Tuesday15 April 2025, Councillors voted to not proceed with the proposed library project at Kerry Street and Paradise Beach Road, Sanctuary Point with the loss of parking cited as a key concern.

Council has requested that staff explore options to build a library at alternative locations including Francis Ryan Reserve and the existing library site on Paradise Beach Road.

Next steps will be to investigate potential alternative sites.
