Residents have until 5pm on May 21 to give their feedback on the next steps towards developing a Central Coast Stadium Masterplan.
This includes looking at the rezoning options for the Stadium and its current land classification of Community Sportsground.
These are being reviewed to help facilitate Council’s refreshed plan for the Stadium to ensure it continues to meet community and hirer needs, and supports the local economy, on a sound financial basis for Council.
Former Council Administrator, Dick Persson, said having greater flexibility in any adopted Masterplan design was important if Council was serious about having a Stadium Precinct and providing better connectivity to the city centre and waterfront.
“We need to ensure that Central Coast Stadium reaches its potential – this is an outstanding facility located in an exceptional spot – directly adjacent to the beautiful Brisbane Water and within a short walk to the Gosford CBD,” Persson said.
“Council is currently constrained in how it can improve the site and allow complementary uses such as new retail activity.”
Submissions can be provided at yourvoiceourcoast.com.
The Central Coast Stadium Masterplan is scheduled for completion by December 2021.
