314, 316 & 322 Main Road, Glenorchy (formerly known as the Golden Years Club, Croquet Club and Bowls Club)

Glenorchy City Council is seeking feedback from the community about the potential disposal of Council owned land at 314, 316 & 322 Main Road, Glenorchy (formerly known as the Golden Years Club, Croquet Club and Bowls Club, all of which no longer operate), by way of exclusive dealing to The Salvation Army. All proposed land is zoned as “Community Purpose” under the Planning Scheme, and is shown outlined in red in the map below.

The proposed investigation will involve the potential disposal of 314 Main Road, Glenorchy via a proposed exclusive dealing with the Salvation Army for a property swap/sale for their property at 1/370 Main Road, Glenorchy. This property includes the Salvation Army building that directly adjoins the Council forecourt which Council has identified as an ideal location to develop into a Youth Hub, and for the office space upstairs that is connected to the Council Chambers via the airbridge.

The disposal of 314 Main Road is only proposed on the condition of a successful property swap/sale agreement with the Salvation Army for 1/370 Main Road and will not be pursued for disposal otherwise.

The proposed investigation into potential disposal of 316 and 322 Main Road, Glenorchy (former bowls and croquet club) is also via a proposed exclusive dealing with the Salvation Army for a property swap/sale for their property at 1/370 Main Road Glenorchy, in the first instance. If a successful property swap/sale agreement cannot be reached with the Salvation Army, then these two properties (316 and 322) will still be proposed for disposal.

This proposal would secure the Salvation Army premises that has direct access onto the Council forecourt, for Council to develop and operate a Youth Hub.

For further information on the Land Disposal process and some frequently asked questions, please register your details on Councils Land Disposals page.

Should you have any questions or wish to discuss this matter further, please contact Council’s Property Coordinator: Renee Kapitzke on (03) 6216 6800 or at gccmail@gcc.tas.gov.au.
