SERVICES & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                            7 FEBRUARY 2017


5.      FUTURE DIRECTION
 Work has commenced on establishing a new retail area at NLC within the refurbished reception
   area. This work was initially delayed due to difficulties in sourcing suppliers who would
   accommodate low volume orders. Shop fittings and a variety of products have now been
   purchased and will be available for sale shortly.
 Remaining capital works projects for 2016/17 have been scheduled for completion and include
   an external storage shed, a new stadium floor scrubber and repairs to the café floor tiles.
 Continued strengthening of the Group Fitness program.

The NLC Service Review was completed in December 2016. Its recommendations are being
implemented, with recommended actions planned throughout 2017, including the following:
 Develop a basic plan outlining preferred paint schemes, carpet colours and furniture styles and
   implement over time to achieve consistency in an updated appearance.
 Explore the viability of junior learn to play programs and school holiday programs.
 Monitor Kids’ Playroom usage trends closely over coming months and if declines continue, give
   more serious consideration to alternative uses for this space.
