Wakerley District Sports Park opens
A few weeks ago, I had the honour of officially opening the Wakerley District Sports Park with Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner, Cr Lisa Atwood and Netball Queensland CEO Catherine Clark.
Work has now been completed on the $7.2 million project, with Wynnum Manly District Meals on Wheels successfully moving into the building in May and the first netball game being played on the new courts early in July.
Wakerley Meals of Wheels begin to take shape
I'm pleased to advise that after significant delays, work is finally progressing on the Wakerley Meals on Wheels Centre and Netball Courts.
Council's original concept design featured eight courts, and as such a significant requirement for new car parking, which some local residents viewed as an over-development of the site.
This final proposal represents a good balance of usability for Netball and development sensitive to local residents and the Meals on Wheels facility.
