Background Narrabri Shire covers an area of 15,000km 2 and has a population of approximately 14,000 people with 7,000 residing in the town of Narrabri, 2,000 in Wee Waa and 800 in Boggabri. The remaining population live in outlying villages and on rural properties. Outlying villages include: Edgeroi Bellata Gwabegar Pilliga Baan Baa Maules Creek The main towns of Narrabri, Wee Waa and Boggabri provide infrastructure and facilities allowing residents to participate in a wide variety of structured sport and recreation pursuits. Being a rural area, equestrian sports are popular. There are also a number of State and National parks in close proximity providing opportunities for outdoor unstructured recreation pursuits. The Namoi River and tributaries, part of the Namoi Valley in the upper reaches of the Murray River catchment, run through the shire providing water for cropping, grazing and recreation pursuits. The large geographic spread of the population, differences in socio-economic status, physical ability and work patterns creates challenges when examining equitable access to sport and recreation opportunities for residents of Narrabri Shire. A comprehensive community engagement strategy is essential to developing a plan that accurately reflects the needs of the community and includes innovative strategies to meet those needs in the immediate and longer term future. Similarly, engagement of elected representatives in the community engagement process, providing the opportunity for Councillors to hear and understand the needs of the whole community is critical to successful implementation of the plan once finalised and adopted. Historically, implementation of strategic planning without both community members and Councillors having a strong sense of ownership, understanding and accountability for decision making has stalled at implementation phase due to lobbying by influential individuals or minority groups. Local Government in NSW is currently undergoing reforms with increased scrutiny of long term financial sustainability. Narrabri Shire Council has been assessed as being financially sustainable 3 Consultancy Brief – Sport, Recreation and Open Space Plan based on its Fit for the Future Improvement Plan submitted to the NSW Government. To achieve long term sustainability, analysis of the services provided by existing assets compared with communities needs and future services requires careful consideration. Sport and recreation infrastructure, facilities and services need to reflect changes in the population and demographics of towns and villages that have occurred over the past 20+ years. It is expected that this project will identify assets and land surplus to Council’s needs to provide sport and recreation opportunities to its residents. It is also essential that Council is open and honest with the community regarding what it can afford to build and maintain and what the community will be required to contribute in order to provide the desired level of service. Innovative and pragmatic funding models need to be incorporated into the plan to provide clear guidance on funding responsibilities. Council currently lacks policy that establishes its support for sport and recreation and it is expected the plan will identify policy gaps and recommend review of existing policy. 4. Purpose of Project Narrabri Shire Council is committed to developing and implementing a Shire-wide Sport, Recreation and Open Space Plan (SROS) that contributes to increased participation in sport and recreation by a broad cross-section of the community contributing to the general health and well-being of residents. The Plan will be based on extensive community engagement and consultation, critical review of existing plans and strategies, sound statistical data and current demographic trends. Integration of existing plans and strategies will occur to leverage previous investigations and ensure the Plan is consistent with the Community Strategic Plan as well as Council’s Delivery, Operational and Asset Management Plans. The Plan will be based on locally relevant issues and detail pragmatic solutions to meet the recreation needs of the population for the next 15 years. 4 Consultancy Brief – Sport, Recreation and Open Space Plan 5. Scope of the Project Key outcomes of the plan include: • Engaged community with a clear understanding of the level of service Council can provide and what services and projects the community needs to take ownership for; • Examination of statistical information relevant to sport, recreation, health and well-being and application of the data to strategies and actions; • Sport and recreation infrastructure and services that meet identified and statistically supported community needs; • Development of a Park Hierarchy including setting and park embellishments that can be incorporated into Council’s Local Environment Plan; • Identification and avoidance of facility and service duplication and ad-hoc planning; • Alignment of asset management planning with community needs and strategic goals; • Identified policy direction including identification of existing policies requiring review to align with strategic objectives and policy gaps; • Costed and resourced implementation plan to inform business/service planning, capital works programming and grant submissions; • Identified opportunities to maximise utilisation and increase the efficient use of existing facilities and services; • Opportunities to partner with other service providers, particularly Health and Allied Health professionals and agencies to contribute to the long term health and wellness of the community; and • Identification of surplus to requirements assets and lands. 5 Consultancy Brief – Sport, Recreation and Open Space Plan 6. Related Projects There are a number of related projects involving Council and community groups which require integration and consideration. An outline of these is provided below: Narrabri Shire Walk and Cycle Plan and Pedestrian and Mobility Plan (PAMP) This planning document guides provision of footpaths, cycle ways and improvements for pedestrians and mobility impaired people to access key facilities within towns in the shire. Narrabri Creek Shared Walk and Cycle Path Council with NSW RMS funding has designed a shared walk and cycle path between the two bridges in Narrabri. The path connects key community facilities including the hospital, aged care, CBD, high school, RSL and medical centres. Narrabri Creek Banks - Landscape Master Plan The Narrabri Bushcare Group Inc. has secured funding from Local Land Services to increase awareness and appreciation of the natural environment with the focal point being the Narrabri Creek banks. The shared walk and cycle path is a key cornerstone in the Group’s proposal to develop the area to increase resident’s and visitor’s access to these open space areas. Bushcare is commissioning a Landscape Master Plan for the area and the shared walk and cycle path route will be an input into that plan. Proposed Community Garden A community group is currently preparing a written submission to Council regarding a community garden on the land immediately behind the Narrabri Hospital on the parkland close to Narrabri Creek. This land is Crown Land managed by Narrabri Shire Council. Narrabri CBD Urban Design and Master Plan The Narrabri CBD Masterplan was adopted by Council in 2014 and guides upgrade work and strategic planning initiatives. Priority works include upgraded street lighting in the core CBD, tree planting, and gateway entrances from the highway, pedestrian refuges, directional signage, increased parking, new seats and pergola shade structures. The Narrabri CBD is in close proximity to sporting ovals and parkland along Narrabri Creek. Hogan and Leitch Oval Field Light Renewal Council has allocated capital budget and secured funding in partnership with Narrabri Touch Association to replace field lighting posts and
