Greater Shepparton City Council noted the Annual Report 2021/22 for Council’s 17 Community Asset Committees at its March Council Meeting last Tuesday.
Summary
Read the full story below.
The Annual Report provides a summary of achievements and actions of each of the Community Asset Committees (CAC) and confirms the commitment of Council in supporting the volunteers who make up each CAC.
Each CAC comprises of a group of dedicated volunteers who contribute their time and expertise to operating some of Council’s community facilities. Council’s Community Wellbeing team aims to ensure that the CAC are supported to meet their requirements and are assisted with promotion and recruitment to attract new members.
Council currently has 17 CAC which have been delegated to manage specific Council owned community facilities and recreation reserves across the region.
The Annual Report 2021/22 highlights the key achievements for each committee during the financial year, which included updated drainage around the Congupna Recreation Reserve and Community Centre oval, a new entrance gate, water tanks and netball court resurfacing at the Dookie Recreation Reserve and Community Centre, and new remote control stage curtains, stage carpet and a fridge at the Tallygaroopna Memorial Hall.
Mayor, Councillor Shane Sali, said Council is extremely pleased to support the work of these important committees each year.
“Our Community Asset Committees help to build a sense of belonging by increasing participation and giving community members a greater sense of pride and involvement in their local area,” he said.
“The committees, who are run by volunteers, are an important way of connecting people and creating social networks as we continue to work towards a more engaged community.”
The next CAC Annual Report for the 2022/23 financial year is due to be presented to Council by June 2024.
