Council Seeks Feedback On Sport And Recreation Plan Update

Burdekin Shire Council is seeking community input on the Draft Update of the Burdekin Sport and Recreation Plan, inviting residents to participate in the consultation process to help shape the future of local sports and recreational services.
Following extensive consultations earlier this year, the draft plan has been completed, and Council is keen to ensure it reflects the needs and aspirations of the community.
Mayor Pierina Dalle Cort highlighted the importance of community engagement in this process.
“Sport and recreation play a vital role in the health and wellbeing of residents of all ages,” Mayor Dalle Cort said. “This draft plan provides a strategic vision for enhancing our facilities, programs, and services to better serve everyone. Now is the time for residents to have their say and ensure the final plan aligns with their expectations.”
Residents are encouraged to review the draft plan, available on Council’s website at www.burdekin.qld.gov.au, and provide feedback through an online survey at www.surveymonkey.com/r/DraftSportRecPlan. Hard copies of the draft plan are also available for viewing at the Council Chambers, as well as the Burdekin Library Ayr and Home Hill Branches.
The consultation period will remain open for two weeks, providing a valuable opportunity for residents to offer their insights and help shape the future of sport and recreation in the Burdekin Shire.
