Share your ideas to help improve Colo Vale Village.

In August 2021, Wingecarribee Shire Council sold operational land at 42 Banksia Street Colo Vale, the previous site of the Colo Vale Rural Fire Shed.

The net proceeds of the sale have been retained and held for specific future works within the Colo Vale Village. These works are to be identified through consultation with residents of the Colo Vale Community.

Estimated funds available for future works are in the vicinity of $450,000.

Whilst there may not be enough money to undertake everything that is suggested, we would like to engage with the residents to identify the works that the community believes should be a priority.

Some items that have already been identified as possible works include:

• Dugouts at the baseball field, Jurd Park (estimated cost $25,000)
• Formalise pavement in the carpark located at the tennis courts and provide a connection from the footpath on the other side of the road (estimated cost $120,000)
• Upgrade the community building in Jurd Park (estimated cost $50,000)
• Replace the shelter at Jurd Park tennis courts (estimated cost $15,000)
• Renew outdoor tables and benches (two) in the park opposite the service station and undertake minor landscaping (estimated cost $50,000)
• Colo Vale Mens Shed - request for costs to assist with a concrete slab (approx. $28,500), erection of a shed (approx. $15,000) and electrical, plumbing, and sundry works (estimated at $20,000)
