Sanctuary Point has lost It's Library for The bay & Basin - Shoalhaven City Council

Thank you for your interest in the Sanctuary Point Library project.

We are contacting you to let you know that Council has resolved to explore alternative sites for a new library to service the Bay and Basin area.

At the Ordinary Meeting of Council held on Tuesday15 April 2025, Councillors voted not to 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 alternative sites.

Kind regards

The Project Team
