The City of Coffs Harbour has prepared a new Plan of Management (PoM) for the four Crown Land Holiday Parks managed by the City. This is a legal requirement under the Crown Land Management Act 2016 and the Local Government Act 1993.
The Plan of Management provides the framework for how the Holiday Parks will be used, managed and developed in the future. It sets out:
The purposes for which the land can be used
The activities that are permitted
Arrangements for public access
How leases, licences and other tenures may be granted
The draft Plan has been reviewed by NSW Crown Lands and is now on public exhibition for community feedback.
📂 The draft Plan of Management is available in the Document Library on this page.
Why is this important?
Holiday Parks play a significant role in our local tourism economy, community recreation, and access to the coast. They provide a mix of short-term holiday stays, long-term accommodation opportunities, and public access to coastal reserves.
A Plan of Management ensures that:
The Holiday Parks are managed consistently with legislation
Community and visitor needs are balanced with environmental protection
The City, as Crown Land Manager, is transparent and accountable in how the land is managed
Your feedback helps shape how these important community assets are managed into the future.
