Geotech Contractor Awarded

23 September 2024

Council has awarded a contract for geotechnical and environmental testing of the Richmond Park site. The contractor will begin work this week, and over the next two weeks, they will drill boreholes and take samples to assess the ground’s geotechnical and environmental properties.

We expect the noise levels from this work to be comparable to that of a lawn mower.

Once the geotechnical investigations are complete, Council will move forward with finalising the engagement of specialist design consultants to prepare a Concept Design for the new building in preparation for the lodgement of a Development Application early next year. During both the Concept Design and Development Application stages, we’ll ensure the community has the opportunity to review and provide feedback.
