Construction on a $3 million upgrade at Abbeville Park in Mindarie is scheduled to begin in January, with the City of Wanneroo set to award the contract for stage one to Orixon, an Osborne Park-based construction company. The first stage includes building changerooms, a referees’ room, a first aid room, and a storeroom.
The city has allocated $471,424 in its 2025-26 capital works budget for stage one, which is expected to be completed by September 2026. Stage two will add a multipurpose room, internal storage, a kitchen extension, male and female toilets, and universal access toilets, with $2.6 million proposed in the 2026-27 budget.
The upgrade will benefit the Mindarie Football Club, Mindarie Little Athletics Club, and Quinns Rocks Junior Cricket Club, all of which use the park's existing facilities. Community consultation in June 2024 involved sending letters to 1,253 residents, with only four responses received, none negative.
Wanneroo councillors are expected to vote on the recommendation at their next ordinary council meeting on Tuesday, November 25.
