The Girrawheen Hub Precinct redevelopment continues to take shape, with community feedback now being sought on the concept design.
Identified as a priority project by Council last year, the Girrawheen Hub Precinct forms part of the City’s ‘Putting Community First’ advocacy campaign, which aims to secure support from all levels of government to deliver vital community infrastructure.
The single-storey concept design incorporates the existing hub, senior citizens centre, library, community centre and community garden functions, and provides greater accessibility across the facility and improved flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The redevelopment will also provide increased floor space for external service providers based at the hub, more car parking, expanded parklands and a new outdoor event space.
Mayor Linda Aitken said the innovative concept design would deliver a more accessible and inviting community facility for residents of Girrawheen and surrounds.
“Redeveloping the Girrawheen Hub Precinct will give our community a more welcoming and convenient place to connect with one another, and to access important services closer to their homes,” she said.
“This consultation will help ensure the hub will meet the needs and aspirations of the community.”
Community consultation is open from 31 March to 12 May 2025, and findings from the consultation will be presented in a report to Council.
Construction of the redeveloped hub is scheduled to begin in January 2026 and expected to take approximately 15 months to complete.
The City will work closely with affected hub hirers and tenants to minimise disruption while we work to build a better Girrawheen Hub precinct for everyone.
