Consultation report and recommendations

19 November 2020

From your feedback, we developed a consultation report that was presented to Councillors on 20 October 2020. 86.2% participants supported the proposed concept design and more than 90% were happy with the footprint changes.

Below we have listed the recommendations developed from the consultation process and presented to Councillors. The full consultation report is attached for your interest.

It was recommended to:

  • Prioritise the development of realistic renders (with the opportunity to provide feedback on the DA)
  • Carefully consider the use and choice of glass in the new structures
  • Investigate the arches used in new Pavilion Courtyard design and how it could be reflected in the new building at the back
  • Incorporate Safety by Design principles in building surrounds and landscaping
  • Lighting design used to mitigating anti-social behaviour around the surf club, Pavilion and park
  • Community assets should be incorporated either in courtyard, surrounding park or forecourt – seating, surf board racks, bicycle parking, bubblers
  • Encourage interactive play elements for kids (and big kids). This could be incorporated into the museum, forecourt or surrounding park spaces.

Councillors accepted these recommendations and asked the project team to investigate a series of requirements detailed in the second PDF attached.

Officers will report back to Council with the final concept design prior to the lodgement of a DA.
