On Friday April 11, Member for Williamstown Melissa Horne attended the official reopening and plaque unveiling at Leo Hoffman Reserve.
The reserve has received a $95,000 grant from the West Gate Neighbourhood Fund and an additional $80,000 grant from the State Government through the Local Sport Infrastructure grants.
As a result, the reserve now has a ‘Ninja Warrior Course,’ providing challenging activities for children 12+ and young adults.
The West Gate Neighbourhood Fund provided funding to upgrade the rotunda at the reserve including installing a BBQ and new accessible furniture for the community to use, repairing the rotunda roof, and new concrete paving.
The upgraded rotunda provides an accessible space for all ages with upgraded accessibility.
These works are in addition to the $1.1 m Leo Hoffman Reserve development by Hobsons Bay City Council.
Quotes attributable to Member for Williamstown Melissa Horne
‘It was wonderful to see people of all ages enjoying these new facilities at Leo Hoffman Reserve. The park was filled with kids and families using the play spaces during the school holidays.’
