Exciting News: Teeing up for a Redevelopment!

Have you heard? Collier Park is planned to undergo an extremely exciting redevelopment. And we’re all getting ready!

(Please note: The Golf Course will NOT be affected).

 

Where the project currently sits:

We’re not quite teeing off just yet, but we are cleaning our clubs and warming up the shoulders. In order to progress to the next stage, a Major Land Transaction Business Plan for this redevelopment will be presented at the City of South Perth Ordinary Council meeting on the 27th August. The Business Plan can be viewed on the City of South Perth website from Friday 16th August.

 

Next Steps:

You may begin seeing people doing preliminary grounds/environmental investigations work. While the Business Plan is still subject to Council approval, our preparations are underway.

Upon Council approval of the Business Plan, our community consultation and feedback processes will begin, including a survey out to our community and targeted in-person consultation groups.

Our aim for this development is simple: to redefine what it means to have a public golf course!

We know how lucky we are to have a phenomenal golf course, but the facilities around it need to improve to match the quality of the 27-holes we all get to enjoy. We also believe, however, we can take this even further!

While golf will remain our priority, we’re planning to extend our facilities to benefit more of our community. That way, we become a true community hub where quality golf meets leisure, recreation, and connection.

 

As part of this redevelopment, we are looking at the following inclusions to match with our championship quality 27-hole golf course and our increasingly popular mini golf course:

  • Brand new restaurant/cafe
  • Brand new double-story driving range fitted with technology
  • Dedicated function space
  • Padel Tennis courts
  • New golf shop and office space
  • And an all-abilities playground
  • Commercial/Community space

And just to make it extremely clear: there will NOT be any changes to our incredible golf course as a part of this redevelopment plan.

Collier Park Redevelopment FAQs

 

Is this the RAF project again?

No. The City of South Perth Council resolved in May 2023 to not progress the Recreation and Aquatic Facility (RAF).

 

Why does Collier Park need to be redeveloped?

Whilst the golf course at Collier Park is of a superb quality, the current buildings and facilities are lacking in their ability to cater to the demand of our community. New buildings, enhanced service offerings and improved golf facilities are all part of the plan.

 

Will the layout of the golf course be affected?

No – the course will remain as its current 27-hole form. The area currently earmarked as the new floor plan does not encroach on any of the golf course. In fact, it is intended to only enhance the experience for golfers, providing a seamless entry, more space for pre-and post-game activities and a beautiful environment in which to enjoy it all!

 

What are the proposed facilities in the redevelopment?

The proposed redevelopment will provide a technology-led double story driving range; bistro/restaurant; dedicated function room; outdoor and indoor dining areas; all-abilities playground; Padel tennis courts; a multi-use community space; new cart shed; additional parking and a new retail space. Plus, our existing 27-hole golf course and 18-hole mini golf course.

 

How is the redevelopment being funded?

The redevelopment is being jointly funded by the City of South Perth and Clublinks, the current operator of Collier Park.

 

Who will manage the new facility?

In December 2023, Council resolved to award Clublinks, the venue’s current operator, an extended contract to manage the redevelopment process and ongoing operations of the new facility.

 

Will the black cockatoos be affected?

The City of South Perth and Clublinks are both committed to protecting the black cockatoo habitat that exists at Collier Park. Extensive environmental consultation processes will be part of the planning to ensure an absolute minimal impact on our population of black cockatoos.

 

Timeframe?

Planning and design processes will take place in the late 2024, which construction expected to commence mid-2025. Further details will be released following a completed design process.

 

Can I have a say on the elements of the project?

Absolutely! Upon council approval of the business plan, our community consultation and feedback process will begin! This will include a survey out to our community and in-person consultation groups. Please keep an eye on our page for the latest information. If you subscribe to our mailing list above, we will send you an email as soon as is the survey is available.
