In November 2022, Council secured funding of $900,000 from the State Government’s Regional Infrastructure Fund for further Foreshore improvements. This funding was allocated to two projects:

  1. A Traditional Owner Dance and Ceremony space
  2. Lighting upgrades along the foreshore pathways

The Traditional Owner Dance and Ceremony space was informed by the Indigenous Land Use Agreement for the Foreshore area and has been created in collaboration with Traditional Owner groups. The design of the Traditional Owner Dance Space has been led by the Koondoom Yarkeen Karweeyn Dance Group.

A Marine And Coastal Act (MACA) consent has been granted by DEECA and the Projects team are currently preparing tender documents for the construction of the Traditional Owner Dance Space. It is hoped that construction will commence in May 2024.
