Playspace Strategy 2015 – 2020

Council adopted a Strategy to guide development and upgrading of the Shire’s playgrounds in 2008. This document revises and updates the 2008 strategy to further guide playspace improvements through to 2020. The revised Strategy focuses on new opportunities for children and teenagers of varying abilities. It also considers the needs of adults, carers and older persons by improving accessibility of existing facilities to create easy access to playspaces. The Strategy provides a framework for the ongoing planning, design and management of the Shire’s public playgrounds. It also outlines directions for provision of outdoor fitness equipment, which are not strictly play pieces but are other facets of broader open space facility provision
