Federation Park is more a part of the local shopping/leisure area of Exmouth. I believe it would be a positive move for the market stall holders, local shop owners and market goers.

I believe the markets should never have left the shopping precinct. So to move to Federation Park would be the next best location.

I think the market would be more enjoyable in Federation Park, benefiting the shopping centre as well. The markets aren't big enough for the current site.

I think that there is a lot more atmosphere when the markets are at Federation Park as evidenced by Whaleshark Festival & Variety Bash events and I agree that consolidating the events at Federation Park would be beneficial to the local shopkeepers & cafes etc

Markets brings the community together. It encourages people to be out and about on an otherwise quiet sunday to enjoy Exmouth. Markets are a traditional community event for towns and Federation Park is a great location for us all to share.

I believe that the move is the most logical decision that council could make, bring back a sense of community and benefit trade for all. No conditions as people need choice.

The markets are too small to be in a huge oval, far better to be near the town centre,I think the markets would benifit the shopping centre,eg drawing people in to have a coffee or pick up groceries.

Community Markets would be more appropriate at Federation Park. This would be of commercial benefit to the business centre, and there would be less Kangaroo ticks.

It is a much nicer area to hold the markets. It integrates that whole space much better - cosier community atmosphere.
Previously I would visit the markets and then go shopping in the other shops and then on to have a coffee and smoothie. Do not do this now tend to drive home once back in the car .So now really only visit shops for groceries. On the up side I spend less money this way.
I know many repeat visitors to the town have commented on how they preferred the old location.
Tourists love markets and in attracting them I really feel that the other shops would benefit too. Each are different, but would complement each other.

I agree with the above statement. I also think federation park is a much better location for markets weather wise (much more protected and stalls not so exposed to winds/weather). Centralising the markets will enhance culture and atmosphere in our little town and make the most of the new facilities and refurbishments at federation park. I can see it can only be a good thing. Most of the stalls offer unique products/crafts/services not offered in the local shop area.

The ants are really awful, and last time we did not stay due to how many there were. I felt really sorry for the stall holders who had to put up with it. I think the markets should be moved back to town where they use to be. It creates a wonderful atmosphere in the town centre and I think both the shops in the mall, and the markets will benefit from the extra people who would attend the upgraded Federation Park.

The markets being close to the shops will be a benefit to the bussineses, my parents own network video and have always noticed it so much quiter when the markets are on. Having the markets at federation park will only increase the amount of people at the shops and it will also be much better for stall holders as the wind was quite an issue at nibblet oval.
