Risks & Opportunities
Constructed in 1999 with just a single family change room, the NAC now fails to adequately cater
for current visitation levels and changed community expectations in this area. As part of the
master planning process the team remain committed to exploring the possible addition of a
dedicated family change space which would allow families with young children to get changed in
a safe and secure space and eliminate the need for children to enter a toilet and change facility
of the opposite gender.
Gym membership and participation in classes (e.g. boxing, cardio and core, and stretch and
stabilise) have both grown to a level where the ability to conduct classes in the gym is heavily
compromised. To address these concerns, and to be able to provide the Noosa community with a
genuine ‘one stop shop’ for their leisure and aquatic needs, the NAC has begun to consider the
possible addition of a purpose-built group fitness space. This initiative, as well as others, will be
further considered in the 10-year facility masterplan.

There is a level of risk surrounding current capital works projects, including safety, time delays
and cost escalations. Management are closely monitoring the program of works in order to
mitigate each of these risks as much as possible.
