Australind Community Precinct Update

Australind Community Precinct – Temporary Hold

As part of our ongoing project management and funding strategy, the Shire of Harvey has made the difficult decision to temporarily place the Australind Community Precinct project on hold. While this precinct is still a vital part of our long-term vision for the area, we are currently facing challenges in securing the necessary funding commitments from both State and Federal Governments. Without this support, we are unable to go ahead with the project currently.

We understand that the community was looking forward to the development of this precinct, and we share your enthusiasm for creating a central civic hub in Australind. Please be rest assured that this project is not abandoned, but rather postponed until the necessary resources are in place to ensure its success.

Addressing Immediate Needs

In the interim, we recognise the pressing need to address the shortage of office accommodation for our staff. To ensure that our team can continue to provide the high level of service our community expects, we are progressing with internal changes to the Australind Administration Centre, converting the Council Chambers and Meeting Room to office accommodation.

We appreciate your understanding as we navigate these challenges and work to make the best decisions for our community. Our commitment to the Australind Community Precinct remains strong, and in the future, we will continue to seek the funding and support needed to bring this important project to life.

Thank you for your continued support and engagement.
