Community Consultations Underway For Sarina Field Of Dreams Revitalisation

Mackay Regional Council, in collaboration with urban design and place activation consultants, is actively engaging with the Sarina community to rejuvenate the Sarina Field of Dreams precinct. A series of meetings and a comprehensive two-day workshop have been conducted, involving community stakeholders, councillors, and key council staff. The aim is to gather valuable feedback and ideas to inform the development of a draft precinct activation plan.

The Sarina Field of Dreams precinct, a beloved community space, is poised for transformation. The revitalisation efforts seek to enhance the precinct's appeal and functionality, ensuring it continues to serve as a vibrant hub for locals and visitors alike. The draft activation plan, once developed, will be circulated for broader community consultation, allowing for further input and refinement.

For more information and to stay updated on the progress of the Sarina Field of Dreams revitalisation, residents and interested parties are encouraged to visit the Connecting Mackay website at www.connectingmackay.com.au/sarina-field-of-dreams. The website provides details on upcoming consultation opportunities and avenues for community involvement.

Through collaborative efforts, the Sarina Field of Dreams precinct is set to embark on a new chapter, fostering a sense of pride and connection within the community.
