AM Report 20/07/15 WESTERN ADELAIDE SPORTING FACILITY SUPPLY & DEMAND STUDY AND PRESENTATION Item 3.77 Continued Relevant Council policies are: • Sporting and Community Clubs Fees Policy Background The Cities of Charles Sturt, Port Adelaide Enfield and West Torrens, along with Adelaide Shores, provide a significant range of sport and recreation facilities and opportunities for the wider western Adelaide population. Western Metropolitan Adelaide, over time, has established a range of local and region sporting facilities to cater for diverse community needs, and this has been appropriate given the importance of active and healthy communities. Long term financial planning and infrastructure asset management have been identified as two key challenges facing local government. All Councils have very large stocks of assets relative to their revenue base. A high proportion of these assets, most noticeably sporting and recreation facilities, are reaching the stage where they will require upgrading or replacing in the foreseeable future. These issues and potential impacts on communities and sports have reached a critical stage. Accordingly, Council must balance competing demands to: • Maintain existing (often ageing) sport and recreation facilities to a standard at least adequate for local community purposes; • Upgrade some existing facilities to higher standards, e.g. for regional competitions; • Provide new facilities, or replace old facilities with new; and • Keep rate rises to a minimum. Compounding the asset situation is a lack of funding through other levels of government and a reliance on local government to plan for, provide and upgrade facilities at the local and regional level. Equally, now more than ever, the western region is experiencing increased pressure and often conflicting community demands on the use of open space for sporting, recreation and other amenity.
