This consultation has now closed and the final delivery of the project is complete. Thank you for all your input which has helped shape this project for the community.
BACKGROUND
Noosa Council has sought community feedback on the upgrade and improvements of Pioneer Park, Cooran. This upgrade is designed to enhance the social hub of the Cooran community.
Draft Design
Council has prepared a final design ( see page two of Project News 2 in the Document Library to the right of this screen ) based on items identified by the community to be included in a new park design and consultation feedback. These items include:
- a new 2m wide concrete pathway network within the park, linking with 4 new car parking bays off Prince Street;
- a new park shelter & BBQ facilities;
- drainage improvements;
- new turf to improve the surface of the park grounds;
- a power supply to cater for future markets;
- actions to prevent vehicle access via private property;
- improved road access to properties;
- new park seating;
- existing playground upgrade
- improved amenity of the area
- increased usable green space
An arborist's report has identified unhealthy trees for removal to improve the overall safety of the park.
