<strong>Assessment</strong> Recommendation<br />
should be developed at the RSL site.<br />
0.6 2.5 3.3 4.0 7.6 8.4 9.1 The quantitative assessment indicates that 7-9 indoor courts<br />
will be required in Epping North-Wollert.<br />
A catchment population of 76000-91000 people can certainly<br />
justify the provision of an indoor stadium. The Epping North<br />
Regional Recreation Reserve Masterplan provides for the<br />
development of an indoor sports centre. It does not specify<br />
the component elements of the centre. Council has<br />
included $17M in the Indicative Capital Works Budget for the<br />
development of a stadium in the Hub. The budget also does<br />
not specify the components of the centre. The Recreation<br />
Needs <strong>Assessment</strong> which informed the Epping North<br />
Strategic Plan (45,000 people) recommends the provision of<br />
a 6 court stadium at the Regional Reserve.<br />
The recommended facility model for an indoor stadium is a 6<br />
court venue complemented by school facilities. This model<br />
should be implemented in Epping North. The stadium<br />
should be located at the Regional Reserve.<br />
0.1 0.4 0.6 0.7 1.3 1.4 1.5 The quantitative assessment indicates that an aquatic centre<br />
will be needed in Epping North-Wollert. The best location for<br />
this facility would be with the indoor stadium in the Epping<br />
North Regional Recreation Reserve. However, there would<br />
be insufficient space to provide both the stadium <strong>and</strong> the<br />
aquatic centre at this site. An alternative location would be<br />
the proposed higher st<strong>and</strong>ard reserve in Wollert.<br />
Outdoor netball (court) 3 7 9 11 22 24 26 2 outdoor netball courts are to be built at the Epping North<br />
Recreation Reserve. 2 courts should also be provided in the<br />
higher st<strong>and</strong>ard reserve in Wollert.<br />
Skate (venue) 0.2 0.8 1.1 1.3 2.5 2.8 3.0 The recommended facility model for skate facilities is a<br />
higher order venue with multiple elements, e.g. the<br />
McDonalds Rd, venue complemented by smaller facilities in<br />
strategically selected locations.<br />
This model should be implemented in Epping North-Wollert.<br />
The main venue could be located in the regional play space<br />
in the Epping North Regional Recreation Reserve with a<br />
smaller facility at a reserve in Wollert.<br />
Develop a 6 court stadium at<br />
the Epping North Regional<br />
Recreation Reserve<br />
Develop an aquatic centre at<br />
the higher st<strong>and</strong>ard reserve<br />
in Wollert.<br />
Make provision for 2 netball<br />
courts in the higher st<strong>and</strong>ard<br />
reserve in Wollert<br />
Make provision for a skate<br />
facility at one of the active<br />
recreation reserves in Wollert
