Thank you for your feedback. This survey is now closed.

Have your say on the Concept Design – Shoalhaven Indoor Sports Centre Extension. This design is based on Community consultation conducted by both survey and consultation throughout August 2021. Information for the concept design has come from all areas of Community and a thorough discussion with a diverse range of stakeholders. It is the goal of Shoalhaven City Council to provide Community with a multiuse facility that will cater to a range of sports well into the future.

The Concept Design is on exhibition from 20 October to 20 November 2021.

Council is working with design architects, Conybeare International Pty Ltd (CM+) and community to redesign the original Bomaderry Basketball Stadium located on Cambewarra Road.

The redesign will be based on previous investigations created in 2019 by Edmiston Jones and take into consideration community feedback gathered through a community survey open from today, and from the project Working Group.

The stadium will be designed in line with the neighbouring Shoalhaven Indoor Sports Centre (SISC) which forms part of the greater Shoalhaven Community and Recreation Precinct (SCaRP).

The design architects will deliver detail design documentation, and once finalised, Council will exhibit the designs for public comment through the Development Application (DA) approval process.
