Update 6 October 2022
Following the feedback received through the Kesmond Reserve Masterplan 'Your Say' consultation undertaken earlier this year, a temporary toilet facility has been installed at the site. This facility offers accessible toilet facilities for the public from dawn to dusk each day, seven days per week. A key concern of park users was the fact that public toilets were only available on the weekends, due to the facilities being located within the adjacent National Serviceman's Association building.
These temporary toilets will be available until the reserve upgrade is complete during 2023, when permanent toilet facilities will be available in the reserve.
Detailed design continues for the open space component and the proposed new community facility (for which funding has not yet been secured). Procurement for the open space components (ie reserve upgrade) will commence prior to the end of 2023.
Consultation has concluded
