Lord Nelson Park Netball Court Resurfacing

What is it?

Acrylic resurfacing of the two netball courts at Lord Nelson Park in St Arnaud.

Why is it needed?

Acrylic surfaces are required to be replaced every seven to 10 years and to ensure a safe playing surface is in place. The existing acrylic resurface at Lord Nelson Park is due for renewal after being completed in 2017.

$100,000 for court redevelopment
