Council asking: How do you play in the inner west?

Wednesday 8 November 2017

Inner West Council is asking citizens to have their say about how, when, where and why they participate in recreational activities in the local area.

Council is interested to hear about the recreational needs of residents and the changes that could be made to parks, recreational and sporting facilities and public open space that would make recreational experiences more enjoyable.

For the purposes of the research, recreation is described as a broad spectrum, ranging from unstructured activities like picnics, walking the dog and playing in parks to organised sport and everything in between.

The information will be used to assess current and future recreation needs, and what’s working well, what needs improving, and what’s required for the future.

This study will inform the development of Council policy and strategy to address existing needs and forecast for additional population and increasing densities as a result of new development.

Everyone is invited to have their say via an My Inner West Online Survey or by adding ideas to a collaborative community map.
