Maitland City Council is developing its first Community Infrastructure Strategy (CIS) to guide our long-term direction for community infrastructure provision.

The CIS will ensure Council delivers priority infrastructure projects based on community feedback and will guide decision making for how we plan, fund, deliver and advocate for community infrastructure over the next 20 years.

Community infrastructure includes buildings, open spaces and services Council has responsibility for, plays a role in delivering or advocates for, on behalf of the community.

The CIS will look at 10 key categories of community infrastructure, including aquatic facilities, playspaces, local libraries and museum, community facilities, Maitland Regional Art Gallery and public art, public open spaces, outdoor recreation facilities, indoor sports facilities, outdoor sports facilities and public toilets.

Roads and road related infrastructure are not included as part of the CIS. These will be captured as part of Council’s Civil Asset Strategy.

Help inform neighbourhood priorities for the future by taking our short survey, leaving a comment on the map below or by chatting with our project team at an upcoming Couch Conversations session.

While every effort is made to ensure accuracy, this map is indicative only and discrepancies may be present.

Related projects and past engagement

Over the past years we've been collecting lots of community input and feedback into what community infrastructure is needed and what we need to prioritise. This data, along with the current CIS engagement data will support a comprehensive plan for our future neighbourhood assets. Your input has and will be invaluable in shaping this.
