Background/Discussion After completing several studies over a period of eighteen months, Council adopted its all- encompassing Open Space, Sport and Recreation (OSSR) Strategy 2010 – 2016 in December 2010. This strategy seeks to define a regional context for the planning and provision of open spaces, sports and recreation and proposes a new framework for the management and delivery of sport and recreation opportunities. A significant amount of consultation took place with the community in developing this strategy, whilst the community was further provided with a final opportunity for comment to validate the findings of the draft strategy, which led to the final OSSR Strategy 2010 – 2016. One of the major recommendations of the OSSR Strategy 2010 - 2016 refers to the continued development of sporting facilities in precincts and the preparation of master plans for key precincts such as Sarina’s Brewers Park sporting precinct. As it was acknowledged that the implementation of all recommendations within OSSR Strategy 2010 – 2016 would be beyond the responsibility and/or capacity of Council to fund in its own right, external grants were sought to implement the recommendation of preparing a master plan for Brewers Park. In May 2011, Council was successful in obtaining external funding provided by the Queensland Government’s Building Rural Communities Fund – Blueprint for the Bush and consequently appointed Sporting Advantage Pty Ltd to commence the process of developing a master plan for Brewers Park. As part of this process, a significant amount of consultation took place with existing and potential members of Brewers Park user groups and representatives of Council and Queensland Government between August 2011 and November 2011. The draft strategy developed as a result of this consultation was presented to the Brewers Park user groups on November 8 2011 with the aim to explain the rationales of the recommendations and to confirm the strategy’s findings. Further opportunity to provide feedback after the MIN/25.01.2012 FOLIO 19673 FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 25 JANUARY 2012 presentation was provided to the groups until November 18 2011, with comments received being incorporated into the Brewers Park Sporting Precinct Master Plan 2012 – 2022
