Sport and Recreation Facility Plan

Ballina Shire Council has been developing a new Sport and Recreation Facility Plan to help guide the future development of sport and recreation in the shire.

The Plan is a community document and developed in conjunction with ROSS Planning, who undertook community consultation and analysed existing facilities.

We received a good response during consultation and would like to thank all of those that have provided feedback by attending the workshops or completing the surveys. 

The Draft Plan has now been developed with the objectives of the Plan to:

understand sport and recreation participation and needs establish a facility gap assessment for current and predicted future demand establish council's and the community's role in addressing demand maximise efficiencies (rationalising, avoid duplication, establish key partnerships) detail preferrred management arrangements develop a detailed and realistic implementation plan that will guide council, and the community, in the future provision and investment in fit-for-purpose sport, recreation and open spaces facilities in Ballina Shire.

The Draft Plan is now on exhibition for public comment.
