Strathbogie Shire Council is calling on the local community to provide their feedback on early concept designs for an active youth hub in the Nagambie Township.

The Nagambie Croquet Club has recently disbanded and with the space now vacant, Council has started exploring the idea of having an active youth space at this location, with four designs developed for initial feedback.

The designs incorporate a variety of different activities such as a skate park, basketball half court, parkour and social areas.

Strathbogie Shire Mayor and Nagambie Lakes Ward Councillor Amanda McClaren said a youth space is something the local community have been hoping to see for some time.

“We have listened to the needs of our community and have started exploring the idea of having an active hub for our local youth,” Cr McClaren explained.

Cr McClaren said the youth hub is in very early concept stages, and currently has no project plan, budget or timelines in place.

“We think this is a great opportunity to gauge preferences and get feedback from our community at the start of this process, which will assist in informing future planning, and will be taken into consideration, along with a number of other factors including financial, regulatory and safety,” Cr McClaren said.

“We want to hear from the community, particularly youth, about their preferences and ideas on our initial concept designs and what they would like to see incorporated in this space.”
