1. State Government and Council have no known long-term plan of what to do with the Musgrave Park Swimming Complex.
2. We need to reduce the environmental imprint on our land, allowing more trees to grow and more water to be captured.
3. We should protect remaining green,open, safe places, improving those stress-free spots in our community and enhancing one of the few places to enjoy swimming.
4. 2415sqm of fenced concrete will spoil the natural ecology of the land and its preserved heritage.
5. There is an alternative. That does not impede into West End swimming pool's surroundings. All tennis courts and basket ball courts can be built on a 45m x 45m grid only, cantilevered over State High Land and accessible from both sides. This reduces environmental imprint to some 45% of planned courts, adding an additional basketball court and producing 2 of “covered” tennis courts and 2 of covered basket ball courts.
6. Any buildings should meet standards set by the Green Building Council - concrete, fencing and posts from the old tennis courts should be re-used.
