South Burnett Regional Council Sport and Recreation Infrastructure and Strategic Plan Community Survey

South Burnett Regional Council is currently developing a Sport and Recreation Infrastructure and Strategic Plan. The Plan will provide a strategic framework for the management, provision and development of sport and recreation opportunities across the South Burnett and ensure there is a diverse range of sport and recreation facilities and spaces to meet the needs of the South Burnett community now and in the future.

The Plan is a community document and will be developed in conjunction with ROSS Planning. As a community document, your input is critical to create an accurate snapshot and a basis for developing recommendations for the future.
