What is a CISP and why is it being reviewed?
What is the CISP?
The Community Infrastructure Strategic Plan 2017 – 2036 (CISP) provides a framework to guide the planning and strategic management of open space and community facilities owned and / or managed by Council.
Open space and community facilities are buildings and land which have been designed and / or designated for recreational activities. This includes:
Parks and play spaces
Sportsgrounds and sports courts
Showgrounds and equestrian facilities
Aquatic, leisure, and indoor sports centres
Skate parks, BMX tracks and pump tracks
Public halls and community centres
Cultural buildings (e.g. libraries, galleries, museums, arts and craft buildings)
Community gardens
Specialised community buildings (e.g. scouts / girl guides clubs, youth clubs, men’s sheds)
Foreshore and marine facilities (e.g. surf clubs, sailing clubs, jetties)
Tracks, trails, and boardwalks
Commercial facilities (e.g. the Shoalhaven Entertainment Centre and the Shoalhaven City Turf Club).
Why is the CISP being reviewed?
The Community Infrastructure Strategic Plan (CISP) was adopted in 2017 and is due for review. Regular reviews are necessary to ensure that the recommendations in the CISP reflect current population data and meet the needs of the community now and into the future.
