Comment sought on plan of management for North Richmond Park

16 June 2025

Hawkesbury City Council has developed a Draft Plan of Management for North Richmond Park – also known as Turnbull Oval – and is inviting public comment on the plan until 28 July 2025.

The Draft Plan of Management provides a framework for managing the land and sets out how the land is intended to be used, managed, maintained and enhanced over the next 10 years. Council is required to develop the plan under the Crown Land Management Act 2016.

The Draft Plan of Management for North Richmond Park is accompanied by a Draft Concept Plan which illustrates proposed improvements within the existing boundary such as:

• Refurbishment of the existing amenities building (club room, 4 change rooms, 2 referees change rooms, covered storage area, barbecue area, kiosk, toilets, first aid room, office and kitchen) with outdoor covered areas
• Installation of tiered sandstone seating with shade sail
• Construction of a separate shed for the cricket roller
• Renovation of the existing car park with separate entry and exit points
• Rugby league and cricket pitches to remain in similar locations with new line markings
• Installation of perimeter fencing
• Construction of a new playground on the current grassed netball court
• Upgrade of the multi-court area (3 courts)
• General landscaping improvements
• Services upgrades
• Installation of sports field lights.
