The site, at 516 Frankton-Ladies Mile, is a 14.6-hectare property previously owned by the Walker family. "The Ladies Mile property provides a rare opportunity to protect open spaces in the area whilst offering a location for community facilities.'' "The location provides us with the opportunity to develop much-needed facilities for rapidly growing communities along Ladies Mile, and sites like this do not come up very often. Due diligence on the purchase is under way and councillors will fully consider the purchase at an upcoming council meeting.
