Following discussions with community members and the Facilities and Services Committee, the Shire has developed concept plans for proposed upgrades to the Beacon War Memorial and now seeks community feedback for the design.
The aim is to complement the existing historical character of the War Memorial while increasing its functionality and appeal as a place for reflection and remembrance.
Preserving its historical significance while enhancing its accessibility and surrounding environment has been a key consideration.
The plans are focused on creating a respectful and lasting improvement to the area, enhancing the overall visitor experience and making the site more inviting for both locals and tourists.
Key upgrades include the addition of more landscaping and planting around the memorial, optimising space, and the installation of supportive infrastructure such as seating. The plan incorporates elements that reflect the town’s heritage while also modernizing the space for greater community engagement.
Further details of the design and features can be found in the attached document.
