Playgrounds, skate parks, barbecues and toilets closed (30 March)

Published on 30 March 2020

Playgrounds, skate parks, barbecues and some public toilets have been closed as Council continues to respond to the current coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic.

All playgrounds and skate parks in the shire have been cordoned off and signage installed following an Australian Government directive. All barbecues have been turned off and cannot be used.

Council has also reduced the number of public toilets available, with 17 toilets to close. Five toilets will remain open but only the unisex accessible toilet will be available for use.

The remaining 22 public toilets will be cleaned more frequently and will be supplied with soap, paper towels for hand drying and signage detailing recommended hand hygiene.

Council has now closed almost all community facilities to public access, including pools, gyms, libraries, service centres, halls and sports pavilions.
