Waratah Local Centre

Waratah is set for an upgrade

On 29 June 2021 the elected Council agreed to carry out the renewal of Waratah Local Centre. Community feedback on values,issues and priorities for the public domain within the Waratah Local Centre is needed to inform the development of a draft Public Domain Plan.

The site plan below shows the area in scope for the Waratah Local Centre Upgrade.

This local centre renewal is part of City of Newcastle's commitment to developing vibrant, safe and active public places.

Have your say

We recently asked for community feedback to help us come up with a design that will improve the street scape and public space. Thanks for sharing your ideas on how you think we could improve this Local Centre – and what you would like to see retained. Community feedback closed on Monday 13 June 2022. Our team will review all of the feedback that is received, and this information will inform the development of a draft Public Domain Plan.

This draft plan will then be placed on public exhibition for comment, and further community feedback will be used to finalise the plan.
