THE City of Greater Geelong will form a community reference group to help guide design of indoor facilities at Drysdale’s new pool as it moved forward its planning this week.<\/p>\n

The city will develop detailed plans for stage two of the North Bellarine Aquatic Centre including construction and operating costs for councillor approval during 2023.<\/p>\n

Stakeholders including user groups, community advocates and experienced pool operators will have the chance to jump on the advisory panel and have a say, following a public expressions of interest process to fill positions.<\/p>\n

The city is anticipating a $20 million boost from whichever party wins government at this week’s state election after both Labor<\/a> and Liberal<\/a> have made campaign commitments, adding to a $20 million contribution from the federal government<\/a> \u2013 providing it with the confidence to push ahead with detailed planning.<\/p>\n

The second stage, estimated to cost around $45 million, would include a warm water pool and leisure pool with a learn-to-swim area for children, and facilities including changerooms, a caf\u00e9 and kitchen, and administration facilities.<\/p>\n

The city is not planning to contribute to construction costs but will pay for operating expenses, likely to be more than $1 million a year.<\/p>\n

Stage two would add to the stage one project that is presently under construction at the Drysdale Sporting Precinct<\/a> and includes a 50-metre lap pool, a pavilion with changing facilities and landscaping.<\/p>\n

The first stage is officially scheduled to open mid-next year, but Bellarine Ward councillor Stephanie Asher indicated at this week’s meeting that construction was on track to finish in April.<\/p>\n

Cr Asher said she was excited to see the project move a step closer to completion.<\/p>\n

“The Bellarine needs and deserves a proper aquatic facility, every community does, with indoor and outdoor pools and all the associated fitness and health infrastructure and services,” she said.<\/p>\n

“This centre has the potential to fit the needs of all community users; young and old, fit and unfit, dedicated and occasional, and with a range of ability and usage interests.<\/p>\n

“We need a broad ranging and representative community advisory panel to help provide that perspective\u2026 representative groups, local residents, the advocacy group, and people with proven experience.”<\/p>\n

Fellow Bellarine Ward councillor Jim Mason said he welcomed the two-party support for the project and the opportunity for community members to sit in on a 12-person advisory panel.<\/p>\n

Cr Peter Murrihy had led the council’s advocacy charge for the project for a crucial period earlier this year during his stint as mayor, and said he was pleased to see the project move forward with planning. “It’s a really great result for council and the Bellarine.”<\/p>\n
