Thank you for your feedback
To meet the growing needs of our community, the City is currently planning the future of Tempest Park. The first step is to understand our community's needs and then develop a feasibility study. In early 2023, we invited sporting clubs, residents, and community groups to share their vision for the reserve.

Next steps
The City is reviewing the community's feedback as we prepare a Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study. This study helps the City understand relevant constraints and opportunities, ultimately suggesting a viable and beneficial investment for City residents and ratepayers. It considers a range of research and factors like demographics, current and future trends, and facility benchmarking and will likely include a draft concept design.
We will provide further updates on the study when available. For more information, please contact the City’s Recreation Services Team at 08 9411 3444 or [email protected].
