Where will the new change rooms be located within the reserve?
The new change room building will be constructed within the fenced soccer precinct ensuring no loss of public open space to the reserve. Please refer to the architectural renders for precise location.
Why are the change rooms being located in this position?
The location has been selected for a number of reasons including accessibility to the car park, proximity to the existing football club pavilion, the benefits of passive surveillance, access to existing services and minimal interference with sightlines for spectators to view the main pitch.
What is Council investing in this project?
In response to the grant being received, the Council allocated $30,000 to cover costs related to site investigations and concept design setting the groundwork for detailed design and impending construction works.
Council is also providing project management support and delivery to deliver the project on behalf of the Yarraville Glory Football Club.
Who is responsible for the maintenance of the new Pavilion?
The new pavilion will be maintained by council.
Is there community access to the change rooms?
The design of the pavilion has incorporated the minimum standards to align with the development guidelines set out by Football Victoria for the sport of Soccer. The facilities will be available for hire for school sports, community events and alternate sporting use via Council's formal casual booking process.
Are any further works planned in this area?
No further works are planned in this location at the present time. Any work zones will be required to returned to their pre-construction condition once the pavilion construction is finished.
Should a need for further works arise, council will consult with nearby residents.
