Project History

Community Reference Group

A Community Reference Group has been established to provide ideas on how the Hub might be used for greater community use. The group represents a small composition of people from areas of the local community including district sporting community (not a particular sport), education providers, business sector, community groups, allied health service providers and general community representatives.

Regional Sports Hub Terms of Reference

The Community Reference Group have met on four occasions (between 21 February and 23 May 2018) to advise the design team and Council on how the broader community is likely to use the site which has provided very helpful information for the design team.
