About the Plan of Management
Under the Local Government Act 1993 and the Crown Land Management Act 2016, Council is required to prepare a Plan of Management (PoM) to guide the management of any public land classified as ‘community land’.
The Swain Gardens PoM was last updated in 1996. You can read the 1996 version on Council's Plans of Management webpage, which is currently in effect.
An updated PoM for Swain Gardens has now been prepared. The updated PoM conforms to the template supplied by the Department of Planning, Housing, and Infrastructure. It includes information on how the gardens will be managed and maintained.
Swain Gardens is managed under a 'site-specific' rather than a 'generic' PoM. The PoM is site-specific because Council has declared that the entirety of Swain Gardens is an area of cultural significance.
