Council looks after land in public spaces like parks, natural areas, recreation spaces and cultural or heritage sites. This is called Community Land.
Some of the Community Land we manage is owned by Council. Some of the Community Land we manage is Crown Land owned by the NSW Government.
We have Plans of Management that explain how we look after Community Land.
Current Plans
Our current Plans of Management are shown below. Community Land that doesn’t have an individual Plan of Management is looked after in line with the Community Land Plan of Management.
