That would allow for further investigation into building a new museum rather than redeveloping the current building. Councillors Graham Lewis and Peter Kett also spoke of their support of looking into a new build rather than redevelopment. Councillor Nobby Clark suggested a new museum be built on the tennis court area beside the current museum building, and use the current building for the required storage space. Speaking to the suggestion of a new museum building, council s group infrastructure manager Erin Moogan noted that the option of a new museum was put to council last year but declined. Building a museum the same size as the current pyramid building was estimated at $75m compared to the recommended $52.5m in the long-term plan.
