Background

The next chapter in the Serpentine Jarrahdale Road Board Office building in Mundijong is about to begin, with a Concept Plan to be developed to guide the future of the public building.

IA Design, a leading design and architectural consultancy based in Perth, has been engaged by the Shire to assist in the development of a concept plan for the old library building in Mundijong to accommodate the Shire’s Council Chambers, as well as for other public events.

Before a design is developed for the building to accommodate the above purposes, a concept plan will be developed to understand the spaces and possible uses for the building.
