On February 25, 2020, Council agreed in principle to the proposal by Warringah Golf Club (the Club) to build a new clubhouse on the current Warringah Recreation Centre (WRC) site. We are pleased to confirm that the Club has recently received approval for Development Application (DA 2022/2081) to construct the clubhouse at the northern end of the WRC, located on Kentwell Road, North Manly. Following a public notification process earlier this year, Council granted a 3-year construction lease for the project. For more information, please visit
Alongside this development, Council will be constructing new recreational tennis and squash facilities, as well as providing additional parking on the remaining area of Lot 3 (the current Warringah Recreation site). Council has secured over $3 million in State Government funding to support the rebuild of the WRC.
With the Club’s DA approval in place and the lease area now confirmed, Council intends to enter into a 20-year lease with the Club. This lease, with Warringah Golf Club (ACN 000 085 601), is proposed on the land formally known as Lot 1 and 3 DP 829465 (also referred to as Part Lot 2742 DP 752038), for the purpose of operating a golf clubhouse and associated services. The lease is intended to commence upon the completion of the clubhouse construction. Please refer to the proposed lease area, highlighted in red, in the lease area plan link below below.
This notice is provided in accordance with Section 47 of the Local Government Act 1993. The granting of the lease is subject to Council's final approval.
