  • Budget Continues to Support the Sporting Capital
    ACT Government 2003-2004 BUDGET BUDGET CONTINUES TO SUPPORT THE SPORTING CAPITAL The 2003-04 ACT Budget continues to support Canberra as Australia’s sporting capital by upgrading sporting facilities and providing support for major sporting events and women’s elite sport, Sports Minister Ted Quinlan said. “We are providing $850,000 for upgrading the National Hockey Centre’s hockey field to international standard, with the new field to be of the wet synthetic type. This funding will also support improvements to drainage, lighting and fencing work at the Hockey Centre,” he said. “We have also allocated $1 million for the upgrade program of sportsgrounds, pools and recreation facilities. “Change rooms will be built at O’Connor Enclosed Oval and at Conder playing fields. The pavilions at Deakin West and Woden Park Athletics Field will be refurbished. “We are installing new training lights at Gordon playing fields and Isabella Plains oval and carrying out improvements to Dickson pool, such as landscaping, shade screens, seating and regrouting of the pool.” Mr Quinlan said the budget maintains the Government’s commitment to hosting major sporting events by providing additional funds for its agreement with the Australian Football League. “We are providing $250,000 a year for the next three years for staging four AFL matches at Manuka Oval each year. Under our agreement, the AFL will promote football at junior and school-age level in the ACT and will also make reasonable endeavours to provide live broadcasts of the ACT matches into other states,” he said. Funding for the Sport and Recreation Grant Program has been increased in line with CPI, bringing it to $2,518 425 next financial year.

  • Submission Draft Variation to the Territory Plan No 344 Woden Town
    Submission Draft Variation to the Territory Plan No 344 Woden Town Centre June 2017 Your Say ACT Chief Minister, Treasury & Economic Development Directorate https://www.yoursay.act.gov.au/woden-mawson-and-athllon-drive PO Box 280 Woden ACT 2606; e-mail: [email protected] www.wvcc.org.au Facebook: WodenValleyCommunityCouncil Twitter: WVCC_Inc Summary The Woden Valley Community Council (WVCC) supports residential development and the associated community facilities and open spaces required to support a growing population. Unfortunately the draft variation to the Territory Plan for Woden (draft Variation) provides for high rise buildings but does not meet the community’s needs for community facilities. The WVCC requests that a team is established across disciplines (including community representatives) to undertake integrated transport and land use planning for the Woden Town Centre, and the corridor from the City to Mawson. An iterative consultative process that has the community’s interests forefront will build confidence in the process and outcomes. A design led solution can then be taken to the market for competitive bids to deliver the infrastructure required. The WVCC recommends the following changes to the draft Variation. See Attachment A: 1. Densification (building heights should be stated in metres) see Attachment B 2. Town Square – as the central activity point, retention of the current buildings on the perimeter for solar access in the cooler months; 3. East west spine – retention of solar access; 4. Agglomeration of activity - identification of sites so they are not built out: a. an entertainment precinct (car park south of the Hellenic Club); b. higher education (a CIT) (close to the Town Centre); c.
