Background

Willoughby City Council welcomes your feedback on the draft Plan of Management for The Haven Amphitheatre using the survey below.

The Haven Amphitheatre is currently covered by the Griffin Reserves Castlecrag Plan of Management 2016. The amphitheatre is located within Castlehaven Reserve at the junction of The Barricade and The Scarp, Castlecrag.

In September 2016 Council demolished the timber stage in the Haven Amphitheatre due to structural instability.

In December 2018 Council approved Development Application DA 2016/ 283 - Alterations and additions to Haven Amphitheatre including stage replacement with storeroom, accessible ramps, terrace, and associated works.

The Local Government Act 1993 (the Act) requires a Plan of Management for development to take place on community land (Section 36 of the Act).

In December 2019 Council established a Stakeholder Reference Group (SRG) for the Haven Amphitheatre to:

• Inform and guide the development of a Haven Amphitheatre Plan of Management
• Represent a breadth of the views of the community, key stakeholders, and other interested parties.

A copy of the final Haven Amphitheatre – Stakeholder Reference Group Report can be found in the Document Library.

A new Plan of Management for the site is required to progress any future development of the site.

A copy of the draft Plan of Management is available on the Council website and can be viewed at:

• Have Your Say Document Library - online
