Community Precincts Update
23 Mar 2022

Green light given to enhance community infrastructure.

Two major projects to enhance service delivery and meet the growing needs of our community were given the green light at the Shire’s March Ordinary Council Meeting.

Shire of Harvey President Paul Gillett said we are entering an exciting stage of growth and Council is committed to providing community infrastructure and services to meet the growing needs of our community, now and into the future.

The Harvey Community Precinct has reached the next milestone in its development with the tender awarded to Christou Design Group. This innovative architectural firm will work closely with the Reference Group for the Design Development stage.

The development of this precinct will be staged, with construction of the first phase of the precinct planned to start in 2023.

A Notice of Motion was put forward to earmark Australind as the preferred location for the Shire’s main Civic Building, along with approval to prepare a Project Plan and Master Plan for the Australind Community Precinct.

Cr Gillett said Council supported the future development of both the Harvey and Australind Precincts and it was important to have plans in place to support the ongoing service delivery across the Shire.

“It is no secret that the population continues to grow and we need to have plans in place to support this growth and provide a high level of service delivery to all residents in the Shire of Harvey."

“The level of service delivery at the Harvey Administration Centre will not change and the community infrastructure will be greatly improved with the Harvey Precinct development."

“The community is set to benefit from these two projects and we look forward to working closely with key stakeholders and groups to determine the best outcomes for the community.”
