Australia Day in ArmadaleSkate clinics warming upThe City of Armadale’s free skate clinics are extending well into 2017, giving kids plenty of opportunities to join sessions throughout the school holidays.

Skateboarding WA presents the popular workshops, demonstrations and coaching sessions at several of the City’s skate parks, providing young people with an opportunity to learn new skills and be active.

It’s a great opportunity for young skate enthusiasts to get some helpful tips from the professionals.

Visit the City’s website for dates and locations.

Under 18 year olds will need a parent/guardian signature on their registration form which can be downloaded from www.skateboardingwa.com.au or completed on the day.

January 2017

A major step towards the activation of Armadale as a Strategic Metropolitan Centre was achieved late last year when the State Government committed $86 million to build a state-of-the-art justice complex in the City.

For the past decade the City has campaigned for relocation of the Armadale District Courthouse and Police Station to a new Justice Precinct within the City Centre.

The funding commitment was great news for Armadale as the City’s vision for many years has included the development of a civic precinct, reliant on the re-location of the outdated courthouse and police station.

The new police station will be a major regional hub for local police teams, rapid response teams and detectives and will be equipped with the latest

resources to help combat crime in Armadale and surrounding suburbs.

The new complex will almost triple the number of courtrooms and accommodate about 315 police officers, a marked increase on the 80 officers currently working from the local police station.

It will bring a significant economic impact to the local business community, with an increase in the number of police and court personnel working in the City Centre.

The City will now be able to plan more effectively for the long term future of the City Centre and the growth anticipated between now and 2051. The City has been advised that ground works on the Armadale justice complex could commence as early as mid-2017.

Justice Precinct a reality for Armadale after State commitment
