COMMUNITY BENEFITS
The Crescent Parklands team has researched local community needs and looked at local demographic data, to inform upgrades that could be delivered around the precinct.
​
Some of these upgrades could be delivered by the site owner, Tiberius, directly and some may be provided by funding contributions by Tiberius to the NSW Government and Cumberland Council.
​
In addition to the research we have undertaken, the Crescent Parklands team is keen to hear direct from local people what could be delivered at the precinct to make it an attractive neighbourhood centre.
NEW NEIGHBOURHOOD SPACES​

The Crescent Parklands team is considering options for local facilities to support new and existing residents in the surrounding communities, including:
​
-
Childcare
-
A neighbourhood supermarket and local shops such as a butcher, grocer and baker

Potential retail use or community meeting spaces

Possible gym, medical and other wellbeing uses​.
IMPROVED PUBLIC OPEN SPACE
