The Sport and Recreation Strategy is a 15-year road map for the future provision of sport, play, recreation and open space facilities across our City.
The strategy has been divided into timeframes for delivery including, short term (1-5 years), medium term (6-10 years) and long term (10-15 years). It includes a program of work to deliver 82 projects valued at $125 million in the first five years.
Reviews will be undertaken during each period to consider progress of implementation, community need, infrastructure development in the City, contemporary trends in sport and recreation, and resource availability.
An Executive Summary document has been developed which should be read in conjunction with the main Sport and Recreation Strategy document. The documents integrate with and will inform other planning strategies that have been either completed or are being developed for the City. It will also be a critical document in informing the development of the City’s future s7.11 Developer Contributions Plan.
