| Keterson Park Master Plan |

In June 2019 the West Perth Council adopted the Keterson Park Master Plan.

| Mitchell Tennis Court Relocation |
|
With consideration of a new Fire Hall being built to better service the West Perth community the tennis courts in Mitchell need a new home. It was confirmed in the Recreation and Leisure Services Master Plan (2016) that there was still a demand for tennis courts and identified the need to undertake a major refurbishment of the tennis court. In considering options for a new location the Municipality was looking for a spot with existing parking, access to washrooms and within walking distance of the schools. The recommendation is that Veterans Park become home to the new tennis courts in Mitchell. The new location will also be equipped with lights. An Arborist Report was completed outlining the condition of the trees on the property. On July 6, 2020 Council award the West Perth Tennis Court tender to Armstrong Paving and Materials Group Ltd with construction to begin in August 2020. |
