At the Ordinary Council Meeting held on 18 March 2025, Oberon Council resolved to place the Draft Black Springs Recreation Ground Landscape Masterplan on public exhibition for a minimum period of 28 days, commencing 19 March 2025.

Background:

Upon receipt of representations from the Black Springs Community Association Inc (BSCA), Council engaged OUTSCAPE on behalf of BSCA to prepare a Concept Landscape Masterplan for the Black Springs Recreation Ground.

A site inspection on 15 February 2024 was undertaken by Outscape, Council staff, Councillor Hayden and members of BSCA. Following this inspection a detailed list of inclusions for the Master Plan was provided to Outscape and a site inventory taken. An initial community consultation including a presentation by Outscape took place on Saturday 6 July at the Black Spring Hall for residents to drop in and provide comments. Following the initial consultation, a further consultation took place on 12 December 2024 with the local community again at the Black Springs Hall.

A preliminary Master Plan at a scale of 1:1000 was provided to the community. The plan was put on display for the community to consider at the hall during December 2024 and January 2025 and to provide comments by the end of January 2025.

The final draft Black Spring Landscape Master Plan is now presented to the general public for exhibition and comment. The final plan, once endorsed, will guide future development of the Black Springs Recreation Ground, when funding is available to implement the recommendations of the Master Plan.

Submissions can be entered below, emailed to council@oberon.nsw.gov.au or handed to our Customer Service staff at the Administration Office by no later than 4.30pm on Thursday 1 May 2025.

Looks good. How about including a cricket bowling practice area. This only takes up a small area and can be a concrete strip with chain wire fencing around for protection.
