September 7th, 2023Alternative sport and active recreation site proposed for Clunes

An alternative greenfield site to host community sport and active recreation is being considered for Clunes.

To investigate this option further the Hepburn Shire Council is inviting community members to apply to join a Clunes Recreation Provision Feasibility Project Advisory Group (PAG).

In a recent media release, the Hepburn Shire Council says: “During the development of the draft masterplan for the Clunes Recreation Reserve, community interest has evolved to consider an alternative option in servicing the future provision of sport and active recreation at an alternative greenfield site in Clunes”. 

The PAG would work with the council to provide input into the development of the working draft Clunes Recreation Reserve Masterplan and determine how quality infrastructure could be provided that promotes community connection and active participation in Clunes. 

Expressions of interest to join the PAG are open until 5pm on Wednesday 13 September 2023 and can be made via Council’s Participate Hepburn website. 

Community pop-in session 

The local council will also hold a pop-in session in Clunes for the community to discuss the PAG with its Sport and Active Recreation Team.

The session will be held this Saturday September 9 with people able to drop in anytime between 10am and 12pm at the Ulumbarra Room at The Warehouse – Clunes.
