COVERED GREEN INITITAIVE UPDATE as at 21 July 2024
The 2024/25 council budget includes a $700k spend for a synthetic and lights, including an
expanded scope to consider the feasibility of a covered bowls green.
Our club and the council will now work together to further evaluate the initiative. The council will
also consider expanding the Outdoor Sports Infrastructure and Allocation Policy to include
provision of a covered bowls green in Manningham.
The club’s objective is to build the covered bowling green over the next two years. The total
spend is estimated to be $1.8m, with the club contributing 50%.
If we do not gain council approval or an agreement for a cover, the project for a synthetic
green and tower lights will recommence.
