The Mount Barker Memorial Swimming Pool is nearing 50 years of operations and has not had any major upgrades or refurbishment throughout this time. Due to the potential risks related to ageing aquatic infrastructure, and the associated consequences, the Shire of Plantagenet has commenced investigation regarding the feasibility of future development options. This Needs Assessment is designed to inform and determine realistic development options based on literature reviewed, community and stakeholder consultation and a comparative analysis on other regional aquatic facilities. Through undertaking this Needs Assessment process, the following options have been endorsed by the Plantagenet Recreation Advisory Committee to further investigate feasibility of each. Option 1: Refurbish existing pool; Option 2: New 50 metre – 6 lane pool adjacent to current facility; Option 3: New 25 metre - 8 lane pool and learn to swim pool adjacent to current facility; Option 4: Relocate pool and supporting infrastructure to the Sounness Park Sports Precinct; and Option 5: Do nothing. Sporting and recreational facilities play a large role in uniting the community and creating a liveable place to attract and retain residents. The Shire of Plantagenet is embracing opportunities through undertaking a comprehensive planning approach to future facility development.

  • Wagin/Lake Grace Regional & Remote Area
    Shire of Cranbrook, hosted Regional Development Forum, and EDA Economic Development Toolkit 23 / 24 October 2012 Cranbrook Western Australia October 2012 Report from EDA Regional and Remote Areas Training Program Introduction The Shire of Cranbrook is located 300km south of Perth and 100km north of Albany Western Australia. It is predominantly an Agricultural and Viticultural based economy. For the past 7 years the Shire of Cranbrook has been a leader in economic development in the Great Southern Region being the only Shire with an economic development practitioner . The council has had a positive economic focus and shows great vision for the future of the Cranbrook Shire. A great deal has been achieved in the past few years. The Regional Development Forum and Economic Development Tool Kit event was conceived, not so much to gain information for Cranbrook, but to demonstrate what small communities are capable of achieving. This Shire and some of its surrounding neighbours were named in a desktop study by Professor Andrew Beer from Adelaide, as some of the most vulnerable in the country to climate change. The report is titled Beer, A., Tually, S., Kroehn, M. and Law, J. Australia’s Country Towns 2050: What Will a Climate Adapted Settlement Pattern Look Like? Cranbrook was named as the most vulnerable town in Western Australia. Following the release of this report some media articles appeared with headlines like “Death Knocks” and resultant cartoons. Local concerns were that this coverage would impact on the image of the area and its residents. This type of negative press may have had the ability to negate some of the development efforts being undertaken.
