Council has endorsed two draft strategies that outline changes to asset maintenance and delivery moving forward.
Council’s draft Parks and Open Space Strategy 2024-2034 and draft Buildings Strategy 2024-2034 have been developed to guide the organisation’s ongoing management and investment in both council-owned buildings and open spaces.
These documents also feed into Council’s larger ‘Sustainable MRC project’ which encompasses a number of service and service level reviews by Council aimed at securing long-term financial sustainability.
What you’ll find:
The draft Parks and Open Spaces Strategy will be a guide to the ongoing management of existing spaces, whilst also offering guidance around any future open space development. It is also supported by a Service Delivery Plan, which offers clear direction on servicing levels and inclusions at various parks and grounds based on an adopted ‘hierarchy’. Park hierarchies will now guide the minimum service level to be carried out at each location.
The draft Building Strategy takes a similar approach with regards to maintenance hierarchies, covering facilities such as public halls, offices, libraries, public toilets and sports pavilions. The draft building strategy also offers a clear rationalisation plan moving forward for various buildings and sites than may offer little value to the community or are at ‘end-of-life.”
You can currently view both documents via our Your Say webpage. Each strategy has its own project page with the documents, background information and an online submission form if you’d like to offer feedback. Submissions close 28 June.
