Rupanyup Township Project Updates
Yarriambiack Shire Council has announced significant progress on the Dunmunkle Library Project.
CEO Tammy Smith reports that, “Stage 1 building works are nearing completion at the former council offices, marking a
major milestone in the community’s cultural development”.
The first phase of the project has transformed the building’s exterior with a fresh Colorbond finish and a designated feature wall for future artistic displays.
The interior has been thoughtfully redesigned to include a library space, activities room, accessible unisex toilet, reception area, quiet
room, administration office, and a versatile multi-purpose room suitable for in-venue care.
The update extends to the amenities and laundry, with a careful repaint that preserves the building’s historic architectural charm.
Looking ahead, Stage-2 will soon commence, enhancing the precinct with exterior feature artwork, inviting landscaping, and a pergola area.
CEO Tammy Smith added, “the vision for the Dunmunkle Library Precinct is to be a vibrant social hub for the southern end of our shire, fostering community engagement and public use.”
