Signs similar to this – and the taping off of playground equipment – will disappear from the South Burnett at the weekend<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

May 14, 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n

South Burnett Regional Council will begin a staged reopening of facilities this weekend.<\/p>\n

From Saturday (May 16) all South Burnett park facilities – including playgrounds, barbecues and skate parks – will reopen to the public, however strict social distancing measures still apply and gatherings will be limited to a maximum of 10 people.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson said Council had increased cleaning and sanitation measures but the community was still required to abide by social distancing measures, including staying at home if they were unwell.<\/p>\n

Libraries and Customer Service Centres are scheduled to reopen on Monday, May 25.<\/p>\n

“For the protection of community members and staff, Council is installing perspex screens and sanitation stations into these facilities and operational restrictions will apply with a maximum of 10 patrons permitted within the facilities at any one time,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

Other Council facilities are expected to reopen in line with the Stage 2 easing of restrictions planned for June. <\/strong><\/p>\n

These Stage 2 changes will include halls, the South Burnett Aquatic Centre and accommodation \/ camping at Lake Boondooma and Yallakool.<\/p>\n

Dates for these changes will be provided when confirmed.<\/p>\n

“With the health and safety of our community remaining paramount, Council is taking a cautious approach to reopening facilities and asks for understanding and patience by community members during this time,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“South Burnett Regional Council reminds residents to follow the Queensland Government messaging: If you are sick, stay home; if you’re feeling unwell with symptoms of COVID-19, you should contact your doctor about being tested; practice social distancing (and) continue good hygiene practices.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
