Capital Development and Improvements. Council aims to provide at least basic level associated facilities at sportsgrounds, openspace and public facilities. Due to funding limitations, Council is not able to meet all demands for facility upgrades. If an organisation wishes to suggest improvements to the facility at their seasonal sportsgrounds, openspace and public facilities, a written proposal should be lodged with Council which includes preliminary design plans, costing and confirmation of the organisations contribution. It should be noted that this information will assist officers in assessing the proposal and in development of a capital works program, however there is no guarantee that the project will be undertaken or funded. Organisations can apply for funding through agencies such as NSW Sport and Recreation to help contribute to capital works projects at their seasonal sportsgrounds, openspace and public facilities. Organisations wishing to apply for funding for a project involving a seasonal sportsgrounds, openspace and public facilities will be required to approach Council to discuss the project and obtain a letter of support to include in their application. Council is responsible for ensuring the works and completed capital improvement are compliant with relevant building codes, legislation, policy etc and is safe for public. Council will look more favourably on applications for capital works that have the support of other user groups and/or will benefit more than one organisation or more than one user group.
