Council tenders cafe at Woy Woy oval forecourt

Gosford Council is seeking tenders to manage a new cafe within Woy Woy Oval forecourt at Chambers Place.

The cafe lease is part of the $8 million redevelopment of Woy Woy Oval, jointly funded by the federal and state government, and Gosford Council.

"This is an exciting opportunity to partner with Council to provide a vibrant destination facility for residents and visitors, and contribute to the social and economic growth of the community," the tender document said.

Council devoted $2.7 million towards the redevelopment, which also includes a new grandstand building and fit-out, forecourt and extensive landscaping.

The Australian Government provided $3.5 million in funding through its Community Development Grants Program.

NSW Government support includes $2 million from NSW ClubGrants as well as $40,000 from its Community Building Partnership Program.

Cafe construction will finish in March 2016.

Potential operators need to be financially competent in hospitality, with a proven ability to run a commercially viable and sustainable business.

Applications close at 1pm on Tuesday, February 16.
