Have Your Say Shoalhaven Heads

CISP Review Have Your Say Shoalhaven Heads

Council's Shoalhaven Heads Community Infrastructure Needs Analysis flags the Heads as "over-provisioned" — but it doesn't account for our tourism, our seasonal population, the surrounding communities who rely on our facilities daily, or the fact that many of our facilities were built and funded by our community, not Council.

Submissions close 20 May — don't let the deadline sneak up on you! The survey covers facilities including our dog parks, sports grounds, Men's Shed, SLSC, Village Pool, Vic Zealand Oval, reserves and community spaces. For each one you can share how you feel about Council's recommendations and add your own thoughts on what matters most to you and your family.

Simply select your response for each facility and add a comment if you'd like to give extra detail. Set aside 20–40 minutes if commenting, or much less if just selecting responses.

Complete the Shoalhaven Council survey and/or use our email template to make your voice heard before it's too late.
