PROPOSAL OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE This business case supports the establishment of a Premier Sporting Facility through the expansion of the Sir Jack Brabham Sports Complex in South Orange. Orange is exhibiting strong growth in its population with the 2016 Census showing high growth in ages 0-9 and 25-34. This growth is indicative of family groups with increasing demand for sporting facilities and active recreation. Demand for sport and recreation facilities continues to increase in line with population growth. In particular growth in housing in South Orange with the Shiralee Development commencing. Together with the expansion of the Health Precinct with a private hospital complex now complimenting the public Orange Health Service complex this demand will continue to grow. The objective of the proposal is to establish a National standard Regional Sports Precinct to service the needs of the growing population, the Region and to attract sporting events and visitors to the region. The project will comprise four main elements being: One rectangular field suitable for the conduct of International Rugby League, Rugby Union and Football (soccer) incorporating a 1,500 seat grandstand with disability access, change rooms, amenities, broadcast facilities, staff and storage areas and competition lighting for night games. Field to have a minimum capacity of 10,000. Class 2 IAAF Track and Field facilities with grandstand 8 multipurpose fields suitable for the conduct of International Rugby League, Rugby Union and Football (soccer) for summer and winter sports competition Associated Amenities, Food outlets, Parking, Public transport bays, Storage, Works shed and circulation tracks The Project will follow a design and construct tender approach. The rectangular field will be based on similar facilities in Mudgee (Glen Willow) and Tamworth (Scully Oval) with the design for the Class 2 IAAF Track and Field facilities based on the Barden Park facility in Dubbo. This approach has been adopted to take advantage of the features of the existing facilities and adapting them to Orange requirements and to provide a level of certainty of costs. For example a detailed costing has been obtained from David Payne Constructions to replicate the Barden Park facility in Orange (acknowledging some minor design change) together with an overall estimate of the project. The Project is an important component of Orange City Council’s ActivateOrange Strategic Vision and is designed to drive tourism and enhance liveability of the Orange, Blayney and Cabonne Functional Economic Region, consistent with the recommendations in the Regional Economic Development Strategy undertaken by AgEcon Plus in 2018. The creation of new and
