The following files and information were made available to the public during the 2010 consultation process to help them make a decision on the siting of the Wanaka Sports Facility project.

The Council consulted on the proposed co-location of  new swimming and sports facilities for Wanaka via its 2009-19 Ten-year plan process. 

As a result of this process, the Council  decided to:

• request a technical assessment of greenfields sites before choosing between one of these sites and the A and P Grounds proposal;
• include a provisional capital sum in 2009/10 for the purchase of a greenfields site if selected.
• support the proposed format of the aquatic centre but defer the aquatic centre for 10-15 years, due to the current economic climate and a recent report that the current facility can continue to operate at an affordable cost(after some improvements in air handling and floor surfaces;
• investigate investing in some internal facility enhancement on the existing pool, including the possible creation of  learners pool for inclusion in the 2010/11 Annual Plan;
• confirm that an indoor sports facility is the priority and commence development of a stadium and hard court area (with provision for an aquatic centre footprint) in year 3 of the 10-Year Plan (2011).
