Hilltops Council adopted proposed locations for shade sails to be erected at the most recent November Ordinary Meeting.
Councillors were given a report for note the proposed parks and playgrounds for shade sail installation in 2024/2025.
According to the report at the April 2024 Ordinary Meeting, Council resolved to allocate $150,00 from the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program (LRCIP) Phase 4 to the Hilltops Park and Playground Upgrades.

"The proposed funding allocation may not be able to cover the entire playground or park with the most suitable option selected but will provide coverage for the most used play areas of the selected parks."
