Dubbed the 'Health and Knowledge Precinct Master Plan', the 103-page document details the 30-year development of the area running from Edward Street to Dobney Avenue and along to Bourke Street.

Depending on the density of development, the report acknowledges, some existing residential land will have to be "consolidated" near the intersection of Docker and Edward Streets.

"This health precinct services something like 380,000 people from throughout southern NSW. It has a massive impact, and we need to plan for the future," said mayor Greg Conkey.

"It's not going to happen overnight, but we need to plan for the future and that's what this is all about."

Upgrades and developments are planned for all edges of the precinct, with a major focus on the 500-bed Wagga Base Hospital and 99-bed Calvary Hospital.

It will also focus on the expansion of educational facilities currently attached to UNSW, Charles Sturt University, Notre Dame University and a potential additional campus from La Trobe University.

"We are in a very unique position, in this city we have more specialists than we have GPs. We have something like 116 specialists in this city, as opposed to about 90 GPs.

"We play a very important role in providing health services for all of southern NSW, it's therefore very important for us to plan for the future."

Other more notable items on the agenda are improved pedestrian access points and upgraded car parking around the two major hospitals.

"Car parking is a major problem there, as part of the third stage of the hospital upgrade, they're looking at a multi-storey car park, and we'll probably need to look at another multi-level car park on the Calvary Hospital side," said the mayor.

It is a reaction to the so-far organic growth of the city's health quarters, as private practices and healthcare serves developed in the area independently over the years.

The enactment of a plan will provide streamline growth control, attracting investment and identifying missing services.

"The reason why it's so comprehensive is that back when the Riverina Murray plan was adopted by the department of planning, Wagga was identified as a pilot project," said city strategy manager Tristan Kell.

"So this is in partnership with government that we were to develop a health precinct plan. Which is a bit of a collaboration type cluster environment to really leverage the investment."

Having begun the plan in March 2018, the council will be looking to sign off on the document at Monday's meeting.

Once the councillors have given their approval, the document will be placed on public exhibition.

Given the enormous size of the plan, the period of submissions has been extended from 28-days to 60-days.

"We don't normally leave it out there for such a long time," mayor Conkey said.

"It's a very comprehensive document and that's why we've decided to give more time for people to have a look at it."

During the submission period, council will host a series of pop-ups and workshops when residents will be invited to vocalise their feedback ahead of the plan's finalisation.
