Bathurst Region Heritage Plan 2021-2025

As part of Council’s ongoing commitment to the region’s heritage, Council has adopted the Bathurst Region Heritage Plan 2021-2025 (the Heritage Plan). The Heritage Plan aims to guide heritage management within the Bathurst Region and establishes the key strategic priorities and associated actions for heritage management over the next 4 years. It provides the detail as to how Council and the community will protect, enhance and promote our heritage – buildings and places, the natural environment, people and projects and their embedded stories.

The Bathurst Region Heritage Implementation Plan (the Heritage Implementation Plan) has been prepared to sit alongside the Heritage Plan. It highlights the key activities/programs/projects and services being undertaken by Council’s Planning, Museums, Library, Economic Development and Tourism sections to implement the actions of the Heritage Plan. It also provides an opportunity for interested community, heritage and village groups to provide regular updates on activities they are undertaking with respect to the actions of the Heritage Plan.

Note: The Heritage Implementation Plan should not be viewed as an exhaustive list of all Council and community activities that might relate to heritage management and promotion within the Bathurst Region.

Council aims to provide an updated Heritage Implementation Plan at the end of December and June of each financial year. Please register your email here to receive notification of any updates.
