At a meeting held this week, Council accepted a tender from Focus Building Company to help create a multi-purpose space that will bring together library, seniors, youth and community spaces.
The design incorporates the existing hub, library and Girrawheen Koondoola Senior Citizens Centre and is set to provide greater accessibility across the facility and improved flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Mayor Linda Aitken said the project addressed access issues and would help modernise aging infrastructure.
“Redeveloping the Girrawheen Hub Precinct will give residents a more welcoming and convenient place to come together and connect, and access City and other services closer to their homes,” she said.
The final project cost is $31,317,501 which includes $5.5 million of Federal Government funding.
Works are expected to start in February 2027.
