Some of the priorities you said you’d like to see in these key spaces include:
- improved BBQ and picnic facilities, seating and shade
- nature play and youth activities such as biking and skateboarding
- improved creek accessibility, viewing platforms
- improved building use of the Pottsville Environment Centre
- pathway connections and pedestrian safety with the importance of safe crossings
In addition to the six key spaces outlined above, Council has investigated pump track/biking facility locations within and outside the village area.
We now invite you to provide feedback on the draft plan.
