Hilton Park project update

Key points

• Site preparation for a new junior football oval at Hilton Park has started, with a fence installed around the work area. By Friday, 25 mature trees and 10 saplings had been removed after an ecologist inspected the trees and nests.
• Two active crested pigeon nests were moved to a wildlife carer, while a magpie nest remains in a Norfolk Island Pine still on site. That pine will be removed once the ecologist confirms the nest is no longer in use.
• Timber and mulch from the work will be reused.
