I recently spoke to the MBRC facilities management staff who informed me they have the final proposal from the consultants that we have been working with. Final plans include 14 correctly spaced courts with full competition quality lights and new drainage. I hope to have a copy of the final report by the end of this week.
They also informed me that Council should be deciding on budget allocations for next year by mid-June so fingers crossed we are included.
We received $52 000 (ex GST) from Sport & Rec Qld last month to repair & resurface courts 1-4. I had originally considered trying to do that repair work in the July school holidays but the executive committee have decided that is too risky, particularly as we have our annual rep carnival on Sunday, 10 July, the last day of the holidays.
Council have agreed it may be wiser to wait until the September holidays. I have spoken to SRQ and they are aware of the delay. The funding has to be acquitted by end September so we are on track to do that.
Will provide a further update after I see the final report.
