Charles Bean Oval surface renewal

No longer on display. Expired on 16 December 2025, 05:00 PM

Council is seeking community feedback on the renewal of the synthetic turf playing surface of Charles Bean Oval, Lindfield. The oval’s current synthetic turf surface is nearing the end of its useful life and requires renewal in the near future. Council is now seeking community feedback on how the synthetic turf playing surface should be renewed.

To help guide decision-making, Council has engaged two industry experts who have provided their opinion on synthetic turf and natural turf playing surfaces. The community is asked to review reports by these two industry experts and provide feedback to help Council make an informed decision about the proposed renewal of the synthetic turf playing surface at Charles Bean Oval, Lindfield.

In addition to the expert’s reports, Council has provided background information outlining the current usage of the site, the amount of booked hours and indicative cost estimates for renewal options.

Have your say

We want to know what you think and have set up an online survey to hear your views. We also invite written submissions and held a community forum at Council Chambers on 3 December.

Your feedback will help us consider important factors including usage patterns, costs, environmental impacts and community access. When the consultation is complete, all feedback will be considered and reported to Council for a decision on the renewal of the surface.
