Community Facilities - Planning For The Future

One of the community consultation focus groups. This particular session involved two day-care mum participants and you can see that they bought their children along.

Project Summary

Oberon Council's Social/Community Plan 2006-2010 identified a need for a multi purpose community centre and multi purpose recreational centre. The action plan within the Social/Community Plan recommended a comprehensive needs analysis to develop a concept for these facilities.

In September 2007 Council engaged Pinnacle Partnership to prepare a Needs Analysis Report to gather information on future community facilities. The information included which groups might use the facilities and what activities might be undertaken, as well as design ideas and possible sites.

The aim is to provide Council with both short and long term strategic directions for providing appropriate community facilities. The report recommended actions for appropriate and equitable consolidation, rationalisation, disposal, upgrade and acquisition of social infrastructure to meet existing and future Oberon LGA residents' needs.

    "Cities must trade in cultural cringe for a growing sense of confidence in our distinctiveness. They must try to be somewhere, not anywhere in the extended global sprawl of electronic suburbia. Cities must wilfully believe that the unique combination of events that may fuse here is just as compelling as those that may fuse somewhere else. Cities need to involve their people in making and remaking their own mythology, and create something that is truly unique." Marcus Westbury
