Williams Landing Library and Community Centre
The new Williams Landing Library and Community Centre project was a major initiative by the 2016-2020 council term.
The project was committed in the 2018/19 council Budget, this facility will be a celebration of all things learning.
With the surrounding population growing, connected by eight bus routes, it’s important to have the infrastructure and services for not only Williams Landing but also for Truganina and Point Cook residents.
On 25th June 2019, Wyndham's 2019/20 City Plan and Annual Budget was adopted. $1.236 million is included for the preparation works for the project.
This is a long term project and 2019 marked the commencement of this significant project for Wyndham City.
The Library Services Strategy and other service planning work undertaken during this the 2016-2020 term of Council have developed the evidence base for the need for this infrastructure.
It showed the need for an integrated facility that:
- incorporates a range of learning and reflection areas,
- offers a comprehensive collection based on community interest,
- provides access to technology,
- delivers spaces for community to gather – both informally and formally,
- includes consulting rooms a range of services including maternal and child health and other services and
- spaces for young people.
