Parcel Property General Manager, Jeremy Cordina said the new park would be an important part of creating a connected and thriving community at Kinmore Green.
“We believe great communities are about more than just building houses; they are about creating places where people can come together, stay active and enjoy a green space close to home,” said Mr Cordina.
“As part of our commitment to fostering community growth within our estates, Parcel Property is proud to be delivering this new park and sports ground with the City of Wanneroo to create an asset that will benefit the residents for generations to come.”
