The latest

The Sanctuary Point Library project has been placed on pause, in accordance with Council Meeting MIN24.148 (25/03/2024), until Council’s financial position improves.

Shoalhaven City Council is committed to delivering a district library in Sanctuary Point. Investigations will continue to identify a feasible solution, in accordance with Council Meeting MIN24.241 (06/05/2024).

About the project

The Sanctuary Point District Library will inject new life into the Sanctuary Point village by providing a hub of community activity; access to technology and information; a place for meeting, collaborating, connecting, studying; and access to business spaces, reader services and collections.

This project involves:

  • lodgement of a Development Application
  • preparation of Detail Design
  • reparation of documentation for Tender for Construction.

In 2021 Council held community consultations and information sessions to receive feedback. This was useful input into the design of the Sanctuary Point Regional Library.
