Sea Eagles yet to lodge ‘detailed proposal’ for Brookvale Oval $35m upgrade
MANLY-WARRINGAH Sea Eagles are yet to submit a formal proposal to get State Government funding to upgrade Brookvale Oval, according to the NSW Office of Sport.
It follows a report that an announcement of a $35 million upgrade was imminent — which came as news to the stadium’s owner, Northern Beaches Council.
Mayor Michael Regan said today he was not expecting an announcement on a proposed 3000-seat grandstand and new centre of excellence, which was reported as imminent by The Daily Telegraph.
“It is the first I have heard of it, “ Cr Regan said.
“We have been working with the current CEO (Lyall Gorman) since he began and they have employed a third party to assist with their plans.
“We have left them to deal with the relevant parties to come back to us with their plan of attack or wishlist.”
The NRL club was contacted but did not return calls.
But a spokeswoman for the Office of Sport said: “The Manly Sea Eagles are yet to submit a detailed proposal... for their Centre of Excellence.
“When the Government has received a proposal it will evaluate it against the Centre of Excellence guidelines.”
In 2011 Warringah Council consultation showed a thirst for a mix of low-rise residential, commercial and retail as well as a tertiary education presence as part of a broader development of Brookvale Oval.
Cr Regan has consistently said this could be achieved by offering a long-term lease to a developer for the land south of the oval in return for a stadium upgrade and regular ground maintenance.
He said the funds would not improve the existing ageing infrastructure, but rather provide extensions.
“From what I read, that $35 million would be a reasonably accurate number for 4000 seats and a centre of excellence,” he said. “That wouldn’t include anything else.”
He expected plans to be shown to the council before they were released, saying the preferred option would still be for the State Government to take over the land.
“Ideally the council will have significant input in to what happens there,” he said. “Our original position was it should go into a State Government trust.
“That has always been our position but that has been rejected every time.”
Any new money coming into the facility would add to the about $1 million in ratepayer costs per year, through depreciation and maintenance.
“Two per cent of the $35 million would be the minimum cost to the ratepayer in depreciation that comes off our bottom line,” Cr Regan said.

Yet again...
Hopefully will bring a crowded house with it

I have been saying this for quite a while. Where is Council in these discussions?
Meanwhile, the money that is allocated could have been spent long before now on worthwhile upgrades, notwithstanding Mr Rabbit’s proviso that the federal money go towards a hill stand. I’m sure that little joker in the pack caveat could be renegotiated.

There is a almost new large scoreboard that is about to be scrapped at Allianz Stadium.
Bring it to Brookvale, just need a nice big stadium to attach it to.

Latest reports are the light rail is so far over budget they can’t use the term gazzilions any more. They’re now measuring the blow out in terms of Roosters salary caps.

Bring that amazing screen from the Northern Stand.
Then Manly could make some monies in Summer with outdoor movies under the stars
Why can’t we be given some of the bucket seats they’ll have to throw out and we can use them for replacing the bench seats around the ground.
It’ll save some money for when we try to do a little work to upgrade.

Infrastructure works are a fools game. Companies get wooed by 3% margins that go down the toilet as soon as there are any delays...

You raise an excellent point. Other councils/clubs have taken advantage of modifications/rebuilds ( Olympic Park, SCG) elsewhere to enhance their grounds (WIN Stadium, Leichhardt), our council and club? Not once.
It’s 2018 and they still have wooden benches around three sides of Brookvale Oval, installed in 1970.

I don't think so, from memory it 25k undercover seating.

Then it won’t make a difference to me . I sit on the Hill .
Without a home final the upgrade is kinda useless
It will make a difference if you don’t have aground with a hill to sit on any more.
