Chittering Community Complex

On Friday, 14 August 2020, Council received official notification that the request for variation to the BBRF Grant for a Chittering Community Centre and Muchea Clubrooms, made in April 2020 was unsuccessful. The requested change was deemed to be outside the scope of the approved project.

Council resolved at the August 2020 Ordinary Council Meeting, to conduct a survey of residents on the recreational needs of the Chittering community before making a final decision whether to proceed with a modified option for the project.  This survey will be available in hard copy and online, and will enable council to determine the community desire for the proposed projects and the communities future sport and recreational needs.  This will inform future council planning processes.

The original BBRF Grant and Shire of Chittering contribution was for a Community Centre, Sports Hall and Playing Field at Lower Chittering.  AusIndustry have advised that the sports component of the original application was what saw this project successfully funded.

Council now has to make the decision whether to proceed with the Chittering Complex, and if so which of five options to proceed with, keeping in mind restrictions on project funding and land use.   None of these options involves a financial contribution or use of the facility by Immaculate Heart College.

  1. Save and build in 20 years.
  2. Community Centre only: Community spaces, kitchen.
  3. Community Centre, AFL oval: Community spaces, kitchen, AFL oval, permanent change rooms
  4. Indoor Sports Centre, AFL Oval: Indoor sports, change rooms, basic kitchen, AFL oval.
  5. Indoor Sports Centre only: Indoor sports, change rooms, basic kitchen.

 A online and reply paid physical survey of residents and landowners, was released on Monday 21 September, and closing on Friday 9 October.  Results will be taken to Council after this date for a final decision on this project.
