Help shape the future of sport and recreation at Burnside Council!

Do you like to walk the dog or play sport in Burnside? Do you have kids that play at the local playground or swim at the Burnside Pool? Do you like a family game of tennis at the local public courts on the weekend? If so, we need your comments and suggestions on the Draft Sport and Recreation Strategy for the City of Burnside.

How can I get involved?

You are invited to provide comment on the findings of the Draft Strategy and the more than 120 Actions indentified in the Implementation Plan. Simply complete the survey, add any other ideas you have to the discussion forum, ask our project team a question if you require more information or email us.

You can view the Draft Strategy and Implementation Plan from the online document library or printed copies are provided for reading in the City of Burnside Library.

The Draft Strategy has the potential to impact many members of our community and users of our sport and recreation facilities. Your input will help ensure the sport and recreation services we provide meet the needs of our community in a socially, environmentally and financially sustainable manner.

The consultation concludes 5pm on Friday 13 September 2013.

Background

The Council have prepared a Draft Sport and Recreation Strategy to allow Council to plan for future service provision for sport and recreation programs and facilities in the City. The Strategy has the potential to impact many members of our community and users of our sport and recreation facilities.

Council have done a review of the activities that our residents participate in and asked 600 residents from primary school, secondary school and adults what activities they would like to do in Burnside in the future. This information combined with the annual community survey results and a situation analysis has resulted in gaps being identified and opportunities developed to improve our sport and recreation service delivery to our community.

Next Steps

Outcomes of the consultation will be incorporated as appropriate into the Draft Strategy and reported back to Council in November 2013.

    Under No. 3 it states "larger regional parks should be developed". Further info please on why and how parks should be developed when they are parks, not entertainment venues!

    Eucalyptus asked over 10 years ago
    Thank you for your question. It's not about making them entertainment venues. The "being developed" means the larger regional parks need master plans to make sure development and upgrading of the park is in line with community need and expectation and facilities are maintainable and appropriate. At the moment many of these parks do not have master plans to strategically guide long term upgrades and maintenance.
