From tennis courts and bus stops to new car parks at The Levee, here's what we delivered for Maitland in October ✅ 👇

09/11/2026

Did you know that the 1955 Hunter Valley flood was so severe, it led to the formation of the NSW SES?

But it fell well short of the theoretical absolute worst-case scenario – known as the Probable Maximum Flood (or PMF).

Studying historical floods like those seen in 1955, 1971 or even as recently as 2022 can only show us what has happened, not the physical upper limit of what could happen.

The Probable Maximum Flood is an estimate of the largest flood that could reasonably occur under extremely rare and severe conditions.

While a PMF is very unlikely, it helps us understand the maximum possible flood extent and supports emergency planning for extreme flood events.

This week, we officially lodged a development application (DA) for an upgraded amenities building at King Edward Park in East Maitland ✅

Plans for the new clubhouse include multiple changerooms, toilets, a canteen, kitchen and a club room.

We're getting priority projects like this shovel ready, in line with our Partnerships and Advocacy Strategy (PAS) so that Council can consider future funding options to deliver these upgrades for our community.

This is a big step forward for local clubs, including Eastern Suburbs Cricket Club and East Maitland Rlfc Griffins and we'll continue working together to bring this project to life! 👏

At A&D Lawrence Oval in Thornton, developers from the adjoining Brentwood Estate subdivision will soon start work to upgrade the oval's entry road off Thomas Coke Drive ✅

Access to the current car park is set to be limited to construction staff during the summer season from 6 November to March 2027. Pedestrian access to the oval will be via the gates on Government Road.

Construction of the new car park at A&D Lawrence has been delayed to early 2027, as Council continues to undertake environmental and heritage investigations at the site.

We're also upgrading the local playspace from early next year, including new equipment, shade and fencing 🛝
