Project Description
Otium had previously been engaged by the Lake Macquarie City Council to undertake a business feasibility study and prepare a capital works funding strategy to identify the priority components for redevelopment and expansion of the Hunter Region Sports Centre (HRSC), a high use and operationally viable regional sport and recreation facility.
The report summarised the comprehensive research, consultation and facility and site assessment reviews that had been completed by Otium and FDG to assist Council and the HRSC with identifying the priority components for redevelopment and expansion of this high use and operationally viable regional sport and recreation facility.
It was identified that the site has capacity to cater for more facilities and the centre layout and location of main activity areas present excellent opportunities for future expansion to the east of the existing buildings.
Otium assisted Council with the preparation of their submission for the Building Better Regions Fund (BBRF), and Council was successful in securing $10 million through this fund.
