    PRACTICE NOTE MAJOR AND SPECIAL EVENTS PLANNING A Guide for Promoters and Councils NSW DEPARTMENT OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN CO-OPERATION WITH NSW POLICE SERVICE NSW ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AUTHORITY NSW DEPARTMENT OF URBAN AFFAIRS AND PLANNING CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 3 HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE 4 IMPACTS OF MAJOR AND SPECIAL EVENTS 5 What is Economic Impact Assessment? 6 What is Social Impact Assessment? 7 Why do a Social Impact Assessment for a major or special event? 8 REFERENCES 10 APPENDICES 12 APPENDIX A 13 APPENDIX B 15 2 INTRODUCTION This practice note or guide has been prepared to provide councils, event promoters and the general public with information about how to successfully facilitate major and special events for their communities. These events include street parades, motor races, cycling races, jazz festivals, cultural celebrations, sporting events, open air theatres and concerts, and balls or dance parties and can often attract large numbers of people. A lot of time and effort goes into planning and promoting these events and they are often seen as a way of creating employment and providing economic benefits for the local community. Councils play a variety of roles, from event manager to consent authority, and have to weigh up the advantages and disadvantages for everyone in their community before they give approval for the event to go ahead. Events are often complex and may depend on approvals from a range of different agencies. The key to staging a successful event is good communication, as early as possible in the process, between the promoter of the event and the local council and other consent authorities such as the Police and the Environment Protection Authority.

  • Working Paper Series
    ISSN 1835-761X Working Paper Series 18-2007 November 2007 An Analysis of the Roads to Recovery Program in New South Wales Local Government Margaret Lopez, Brian Dollery and Joel Byrnes School of Business, Economics and Public Policy & Centre for Local Government, UNE Abstract: A crisis has developed in the maintenance and renewal of vital Australian local infrastructure that has attracted the attention of several recent public inquiries and some academic scholarship. However, an unfortunate feature of the subsequent debate on the local infrastructure crisis has been its almost total neglect of the role of the Commonwealth Roads to Recovery Program which has helped to alleviate this crisis. Using the institutional context of Roads to Recovery funding to New South Wales local government, this paper seeks to remedy this neglect by presenting an initial exploratory analysis of the operation of the Roads to Recovery Program. Keywords: Infrastructure; local government; Roads to Recovery.
