⁠⁠⁠Overview

The City of Melville is seeking to engage a suitably qualified and experienced contractor to provide Marmion Reserve Sports Floodlight renewal services at 440 Marmion St, Myaree WA 6154.

About

Marmion Reserve is a key community sporting and recreational space within the City of Melville. The reserve includes open playing fields, a small water body, a playground with picnic facilities, two floodlit hard courts primarily used for netball, and a centrally located clubhouse with spectator areas. Ample car parking and connecting footpaths support both organised sport and casual community use.

Purpose

The purpose of the Marmion Reserve Floodlighting Project is to provide upgraded lighting infrastructure that meets current Australian Standards for evening training and competition. The project aims to support the growth of community sport, increase safe and equitable access to the reserve for all user groups, and reduce scheduling pressure on other City sporting facilities. The project is also a response to demonstrated community demand, highlighted by the Melville Junior Football Club securing State funding for the upgrades. The upgraded lighting will ensure that all allocated user groups can maximise participation opportunities and maintain the quality of the playing surface.

• Decommissioning of the existing lights and poles
