Kibble Park is the civic heart of Gosford – but it is in need of a refresh to make it a safe, welcoming and vibrant place that we can all be proud of.

In 2020, Council commenced this work by engaging with the community on how best to revitalise the park, however it was then paused due to Council’s financial crisis, as delivery of the Plan was dependent on funding. The Plans were re-exhibited in 2023, and the consultation report along with the finalised Documents were adopted by Council at the September 2023 Council Meeting.

The Plans reflect the feedback provided from the various rounds of community consultation and focus on enhancing Kibble Park as the civic heart of Gosford CBD. The park is widely utilised by local residents for leisure and play, businesses and workers on their lunch breaks and community groups and businesses running events and activations.

Council knows that greenspace is important for the Central Coast community as outlined in the Community Strategic Plan. The Kibble Park Place Plan does increase the green space within Kibble Park which is a particularly rare opportunity within a City CBD.
