| 13 Open Country Stadium Designed by Boon team Architects, the facility is being built by Foster Construction Group at Matamata College, with Open Country being the naming rights sponsor. “It’s all about creating a better future for Matamata which is what everyone’s focused on which is great. It’s certainly a true community project.” REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT During the initial design process a steering group was established comprising a collaboration between community members, the district council and others, with local sports organisations having input. Foster Construction Group won the project through a tender produced by Matamata-Piako District Council which, as well as being a part funder, will be the owner of the building in partnership with the Ministry of Education. Completion is planned for early next year. Kirstin has been extremely impressed with Foster’s progress. “I can’t speak highly enough of how well they’re doing with the project, how engaged they’ve been, even with the students. They’ve really gotten behind it and really understood the brief.” Obligation free quotes for all jobs, large and small • Roofing • Plumbing • Gas Fitting • Drainlaying • Heating Comber Street, Matamata | ph. 888 8883 | E. info@comagltd.co.nz Serving the greater waikato for over 50 years 7 DAY EMERGENCY SERVICE DESIGN, SUPPLY + INSTALL Fire Alarm Systems Passive Fire Protection Fire Alarm Testing and Service Hand-held Fire Equipment 4A Belfast Place, Frankton, Hamilton 3204 3/16 Curly McCleod Way, Mount Maunganui Proudly supporting Foster Construction on the Matamata Stadium project
