Public Question 1 to Glen Eira Council

From: Michael Cramphorn
Subject: Caulfield Park Pavilion

“Does Council still believe that the Caulfield Park pavilion will be completed midyear?

How will the new facility be used?
How will Council be allocating access rights to interested users?
Will a usage policy be developed to ensure fair and equitable access to interested parties and to take account of the interests of all categories of park users and local residents?”

The Mayor asked the Director Community Relations (DCR) to read Council’s response.

He said:

“Council expects the pavillion to be completed on time.
The facilities offered in the Caulfield Park pavillion will have the same use and the same availability to the community as similar pavillions in Glen Eira.
The tenant clubs will continue to receive seasonal allocations and the community room will be available for booking and use by community groups.
Bookings will be administered by Council’s Recreation and Youth Services department.
There will be a schedule of hire charges for the community room that will take account of both ordinary bookings and community bookings.
Community groups will be able to apply for a Community Grant to cover the cost of hire for community purposes.”
