Pump track or playground?
JULATTEN and Mt Molloy residents and ratepayers are being urged to have their say on the future of Geraghty Park, Julatten, as part of an exciting upgrade.
The existing play equipment at Geraghty Park has reached the end of its useful life and will be removed, so the council is now seeking community input on what should replace it – a new playground or a pump track.
Mareeba Mayor Angela Toppin said that both options had strong community benefits, but only one option would be built based on the feedback from the survey.
“Playgrounds provide important opportunities for young children to play and develop, while the pump tracks recently built in Dimbulah and Mareeba have been well received and actively used by a range of community members,” she said.
Julatten and Mt Molloy residents and ratepayers are encouraged to complete the short community survey available on council’s website by 7 September.
If residents would like further information, contact council’s Communities Team on 1300 308 461 or email communitywellbeing@msc.qld.gov.au
