Revised Master Plans for two of Gunnedah Shire’s best-loved open spaces, Kitchener Park and Wolseley Park are again on exhibition for public submissions through until Monday, 3 February 2025.
Gunnedah Shire Council Director Infrastructure Services Jeremy Bartlett says the Master Plans had been recommended in the Gunnedah Shire Open Space Strategy 2022-2032 adopted by Council in 2022.
The Master Plans were created following significant community consultation for each site to determine the community’s needs into the future.
“Four Master Plans – for Kitchener Park, Wolseley Park, the Riverine Precinct and Gunnedah Showground – were presented to Council in July,” Mr Bartlett said.
“These plans were placed on public exhibition through until mid-September and were revised following consideration of submissions.
“The revised plans were presented to Councillors last week who endorsed the Kitchener Park Master Plan for exhibition again, as well as Option 1 for the Wolseley Park Master Plan. Further consultation will be undertaken with relevant stakeholders on the Riverine Precinct and Gunnedah Showground Master Plans, with another report to be presented to Council in March 2025.”
The Kitchener Park and Wolseley Park Master Plans can be viewed online at www.gunnedah.nsw.gov.au (under Draft Documents & Exhibition).
Community members are encouraged to look at the plans and include their comments in a submission to Council by 5pm on Monday, 3 February 2025. More details are available on the website.
