Funding agreement signed for Umina oval facilities
The funding agreement between the Federal Government and Central Coast Council has been signed for the $8.25 million redevelopment of the Peninsula Recreation Precinct in Umina Beach, Member for Robertson Ms Lucy Wicks has announced.
The project includes a new BMX and skate park as well as facilities for Umina United Eagles Soccer Club, Umina Bunnies Junior Rugby League Club and the Southern Spirit Cricket Club.
"The clubs that use Umina oval are growing at a rapid pace and they need the types of amenities that are going to grow with them," said Ms Wicks.
"That's why it's so important we worked to get this funding agreement right.
"The execution of a funding agreement means Central Coast Council have the funds to get on with the job of planning and constructing these improved facilities.
"I want to see shovels in the ground as soon as possible and I will continue to advocate until this project is delivered and able to be used by all in our community.
"This is a significant milestone for those who have worked to make this project a reality."
