This proposed plan has been developed in consultation with members of the Fidden family and the Pindimar Progress Association, in an attempt to provide a recreation space for the entire community.

The need for an open space facility has been identified in various planning documents for an extended period of time and was first brought to council's attention around eight years ago.

Great Lakes Council's manager for parks and recreation, David Bortfeld, said the location for the proposed recreation area basically chose itself.

"There are not too many places accessible for this type of facility in the Pindimar area and the Leone Fidden Memorial Reserve was an obvious choice as the reserve was donated by the Fidden family, so there's a lot of local history there," he said.

It is believed this recently developed Master Plan will provide the community with a valuable resource.

"As the community grows there is a change of demographic, meaning an increasing number of families with children have moved to the area.

"Currently there are no recreation facilities to cater for them in the Pindimar area," Mr Bortfeld said.

The Master Plan has incorporated a tennis court, skate ramp, hard court and playground.

The native vegetation that currently exists on the site will be retained and protected by barriers.

"We have already conducted a tree audit and a vegetation audit," Mr Bortfeld said.

The plan showing the proposal is located in Leone Fidden Memorial Reserve, Koree St Pindimar and at Council's District Office, Tea Gardens, and is currently on public exhibition until Thursday, May 3.

All written submissions should be sent to Great Lakes Council, PO Box 450 Forster 2428, and be received no later than Wednesday, May 2.

"The two groups we have been working with (the Pindimar Progress Association and the Fidden family) helped to generate ideas for the Master Plan, but it is now on public display so that the whole community can take a look and have a chance to have their say on the proposal," Mr Bortfeld said.
