Related plans and strategies
In the past, we have relied on the NSW Government’s Regional Boating Plan - Far South Coast Region and Council’s previous Batemans Bay Regional Waterways Infrastructure Plan for guidance on managing our marine facilities. The projects identified in these plans are now complete and the plans have expired.
The NSW Government is not replacing the Regional Boating Plan and we will now develop our own strategy to provide direction for the next 10 years.
The following plans and strategies will influence our new Marine Infrastructure Strategy.
