Update on Sanctuary Point Library project

Published on 17 April 2025

Council has resolved to explore alternative sites for a new library to service the Bay and Basin area.  

At Tuesday night’s meeting, Councillors voted to not proceed with the proposed library project at Kerry Street and Paradise Beach Road, Sanctuary Point with the loss of parking cited as a key concern. 

Council has requested that staff explore options to build a library at alternative locations including Francis Ryan Reserve and the existing library site on Paradise Beach Road. 

Next steps will be to investigate potential sites. For more information on the project head to Council’s Get Involved page.
