Coonamble Shire Council Masterplan

Overview
At their Ordinary Meeting on 8 April, Council approved the draft Masterplan to be placed on exhibition for a period of four (4) weeks from Tuesday 14 April. The draft Masterplan has been developed following extensive community consultation and engagement and plans for the development of key components and priorities in the Coonamble Local Government Area (LGA).

These priorities include the Coonamble CBD precinct, town and village entrance signage, the Coonamble Visitor Information Centre, Coonamble Bore Bath Complex, tourism and branding opportunities.

Each of these components has been investigated and the community has been consulted to provide the guiding principles for design. These guiding principles are:

BATHS: Provide artesian baths experience
NATURE: Provide for nature-based tourism
TOWN: Facilitate a vibrant town life
SHADE: Provide more shade
HERITAGE: Enhancement of Aboriginal cultural heritage
ART: Facilitate the inclusion of public art
POOL: Upgrade pool
AMENITY: Provide basic public amenity
VISITOR: Provide amenity that attracts visitors
The Draft Masterplan is made up of a suite of images and documents which describe plans for the long-term future development of the Coonamble LGA.

These include maps of Coonamble, Quambone and Gulargambone with detailed notation of proposed upgrades and development, photo montages of what our towns and villages will look like following proposed developments, map views of the Coonamble Visitor Information Centre, Mineral Spa (bore bath) Complex and Main Street precincts, images of the design concept of the Coonamble Visitor Information Centre and demonstrations of how new branding will be applied.

Comments and submissions are invited in writing before 5.00 p.m. on TUESDAY 12 MAY to The General Manager, Coonamble Shire Council Post Office Box 249 COONAMBLE NSW 2829, the dropbox at the entrance to the Coonamble Shire Council office at 80 Castlereagh Street COONAMBLE NSW 2829 or [email protected].
