Proposed new facility Chinchilla’s Lions Park will undergo a refresh, with Western Downs Regional Council soon to commence important upgrades as part of its commitment to enhancing the liveability of the region.   Council will completely revamp the amenities block located at the park to make the area more welcoming for locals and visitors and support the future needs of the community.   Council Spokesperson for Recreational Spaces and Cemeteries Councillor Carolyn Tillman said the upgrade would further–entice local families to head outdoors and enjoy their local town.    “The Chinchilla Lions Park is a much-loved family facility and we want to invest in these facilities to ensure they can continue to be enjoyed by the community for years to come,” Cr Tillman said.   “The existing toilet facility has reached the end of its life and is in dire need of an upgrade so Council will be replacing the old iron structure with a new modern, accessible facility.   “The new amenities block will make it more attractive for local families and travellers passing through, increasing vibrant recreational opportunities in the region.   “This is just one of many local projects Council is delivering as part of its massive $50 million COVID-19 Recovery Package to secure and create local jobs and leave a lasting legacy for the region’s future.”  Western Downs Regional Council Media Office 07 4679 4265
