WORKS to revamp Roy Dore Reserve in Carrum have been scheduled for late 2019.
The project will see the reserve get a new main pavilion, tennis pavilion and courts, and lighting upgrades. The project is to be completed in stages, with the final stage scheduled to finish by 2023.
Kingston ratepayers contributed $4.8 million to the project, while the state government allocated $4 million of taxpayer money to the works.
The mayor Georgina Oxley said “this incredible new facility will benefit a whole range of local groups and help provide Carrum with high-quality facilities to enjoy for decades to come.”
Carrum Patterson Lakes sports club president Andrew Adams said “this upgraded precinct will serve thousands of local families and act as a key community focal point for Carrum. We can’t wait for the final result.”
