Collier Park Village

 

Collier Park Village (CPV) has been owned and operated by the City for more than 30 years, offering independent living for those aged 55 years and over.

Opened in 1986 as a Council initiative, CPV is situated on Crown Land designated for aged persons homes. 

Currently, CPV is home to 194 residents, offering 169 two-bedroom, one-bathroom self-contained units.

Future Operator

At the Ordinary Council Meeting on Tuesday 28 March 2023, Council endorsed the Officer Recommendation to commence a ‘Request for Proposal’ (RfP) process for Collier Park Village (CPV).

The City invited experienced retirement village operators to present proposals to improve and enhance CPV, which closed on 30 June 2023. The City evaluated the proposals and at its 31 October 2023 Ordinary Meeting, Council endorsed Amana Living Incorporated as the preferred future operator.

The City is now progressing negotiations with Amana Living Incorporated for the ultimate transfer of the land, ensuring the requirements of the RfP are reflected in any future contract. 

Major Land Transaction - Business Plan 

At its 26 March 2024 Ordinary Meeting, Council resolved to adopt the business plan for the disposal of Collier Park Village (CPV), pursuant to Section 3.59 of the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act), for the purposes of public advertising. 

At its 31 October 2023 Ordinary Meeting, Council endorsed Amana Living Incorporated as the preferred future operator. 

Disposal of CPV to Amana Living Incorporated is a ‘Major Land Transaction’ for the purposes of the Act.  In accordance with Section 3.59 of the Act, a Major Land Transaction Business Plan is required to be advertised to progress the transfer of CPV from the City to Amana Living Incorporated. 

The business plan has been prepared in accordance with section 3.59 of the Act and the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996. 

A copy of the statutory advertising notice and business plan are available.

Next Steps 

Prior to the ultimate transfer of the land, Council will be required to: 

  • Endorse the Business Plan following Statewide notice; and 

  • Authorise the Chief Executive Officer and the Mayor to execute a contract with Amana Living Incorporated.  The contract will reflect the requirements of the RfP.
