A new facility will replace the current Elma Turner Library and potentially the existing Civic House building and provide a new community hub, with a new single-site integrated solution. Elma Turner Library is nearing end-of-life and Civic House requires substantial reinvestment to make it fit for purpose.

Council now invites responses from the market to help inform the next phase of investigation, planning and approval, leading to a preferred solution being identified and a Detailed Business Case being considered by Council.
