How much funding has been allocated to Westleigh Park?

After Council purchased the 36 hectare site from Sydney Water in 2016 for $21 m, the NSW Government allocated $40 million via the Stronger Communities Fund - to create Westleigh Park.

This amount will fund the entire Stage 1 works. Stage 2 of the project is entirely dependent on allocation of future funding sources. This will not occur until the completion of Stage 1.

Additional $3.5M funding has also been received to upgrade and build mountain bike trails in Hornsby Shire.

Once the detailed design is finalised, Council will then construct and deliver priority landscape embellishment finishes for the park as funding becomes available.
