Why is Council revitalising Greenmount Headland?

    Many of the structures at Greenmount Headland are getting older and need to be replaced to keep our community safe. The revitalisation of these important community assets will ensure a more enjoyable and accessible space for everyone, whether you’re there for a relaxing visit or some outdoor fun, while also making sure the spaces are resilient and vibrant for the future.

     


    I missed the first phase of engagement. Will there be future opportunities to have my say?

    As the project progresses there will be additional opportunities to share your feedback on the plans for the Greenmount Headland. As the design progresses this will include exploring specific details including interpretative elements such as signage and artwork as well as ideas for the future of the waterfall.

    Is this the same as the Snapper Rocks to Rainbow Bay Foreshore Precinct Masterplan?

    The City is currently undertaking engagement to inform a draft master plan for the Snapper Rocks to Rainbow Bay Foreshore Precinct. Although separate projects, there is significant overlap between the projects given their location. Together these two plans are working to protect and enhance this iconic area, so it can be enjoyed by generations to come.

    What will happen to the toilets?

    The toilet block just north of the Greenmount Headland has been recently upgraded, providing functional and accessible amenity for the public. The Southern toilet block is also providing functional amenity for the public, as a result, changes to these toilet blocks is not included within the scope of this project.

    What are you doing about the waterfall?

    Many in the community will remember the waterfall that used to function at the Greenmount Headland that was decommissioned due to the drought in the early 2000s. The City is currently undertaking a structural review to assess the safety and longevity of the structure, the results from this assessment will allow the City to make an informed decision on how we can best utilise this space.

    What will the construction process for this project be?

    Following completion of the design phase in 2026, it is estimated construction will commence in 2027. We recognise that this is a significant project and the City is committed to ongoing and transparent communication as it progresses through different phases.

    Through this engagement process we are eager to understand how we can best work with you to navigate any disruptive period.

    How do I stay informed about future updates?

    We are committed to ongoing communication and updates on the project. Sign-up via Greenmount headland renewal for regular updates and information.
