You can read about the YMCA's invitation to come along to the Harcourt Outdoor Pool to check out the upgraded facilities: gates open Friday 21 November, from 4pm to 6pm.
As Councillor Cordy points out: 'The pool is a fantastic asset to our community'. It'd be great to see everyone there in a couple of weeks.

Have your say on streetscaping in Harcourt!

Ever since the Calder Highway was relocated from the centre of our town, Harcourt has wanted to improve the look and accessibility of its town centre. The Harcourt Town Centre Master Plan which was conducted as part of the "After the Bypass" process made a number of recommendations. One of these was to implement a considered Landscape Plan to address issues including:

·         Increasing shade and plantings to create a village atmosphere

·         Improving pedestrian connectivity throughout the town

·         Consolidating the recreational facilities

·         Creating welcoming town entrances which reference the region's identity

 

To help create the Landscape Plan for Harcourt, Mount Alexander Shire Council has engaged landscape architecture firm Spiire to develop a Landscape Plan. As part of this process, Council is seeking local input and feedback on ways to enhance the environmental and visual amenity of central Harcourt and highlight its unique identity.

 Two information sessions are being held:

Wednesday 17 September at the ANA Hall, 2pm – 4pm.

Thursday 18 September at the Harcourt Bowling Club, 6pm – 8pm.

 The Harcourt Progress Association encourages everyone to come along to a session and share your ideas.
