         interests;
     •   Effective, efficient use of resources through partnering between community, commercial and
         government providers; and
     •   Environmental responsibility through best practice use of resources and minimal environmental
         impact.
The specific vision for the Cooroy Sports Complex is to:

     Offer opportunities for the Cooroy and broader hinterland community to be physically active and
     healthy through the provision of an active precinct that provides:
           •   Formal and informal physical activity                    •   Protection of its environmental values
               participation opportunities

           •   Accessibility                                            •   Management synergies across user groups

The tenure of the Complex requires reviewing and updating to streamline and reduce the administrative
burden of tenure transfer to user groups and management of land usage agreements, by user groups and
Council.
