Detailed civil, structural and engineering design of the new aquatic centre. This will be prepared by Mode Design

At the Council meeting on 14 August 2024, Council approved relocating the aquatic centre back to the northern side of the Sports Hub, adjacent to the netball courts. The southern location where it was intended to be situated is affected by overland flow from Halfway Creek and would require significant work to reduce flood risk if it was to be the site of the Aquatic Centre.

Future works:

A working group has been formed for the aquatic centre which includes Bungendore residents, the Bungendore Rotary Club and Council staff
Grant applications have been submitted for the pool
$17M to the Federal Government’s Regional Precincts and Partnerships Program
$300K to ClubGrants
EOI for $5M grant funding to the Federal Government Complete Growing Regions fund
Facility building to service the future 4 turf playing surfaces (pending funding)
4 remaining turf playing surfaces (not funded)
