Vanessa SchmittMandurah Coastal Times

There are plans for a community centre and library to service the Mandurah North District in the Lakelands Town Centre. The project is expected to cost more than $9 million and should be built between 2018 and 2020.

City of Mandurah councillors are expected to consider an interim library and community centre in the shopping centre at Tuesday night’s meeting. The temporary library would be outside a major retail shop and near an entry point.

An interim library has been proposed to meet the needs of the growing community in the next few years.
