Resilient parks, community buildings and recreation facilities

Following severe weather and flood events in 2022, we’ve secured $15.5 million for repairs, restoration and improvements to our parks, community buildings and recreation facilities.

The Community Assets Program is jointly funded by the Australian and NSW Governments to ensure our public spaces can better withstand future natural disasters and deliver the greatest benefits to our community.

Planned program completion is December 2025.
