Reply to our letter to Emily Boucher re understory vegetation removal from Peter Scullin Reserve.
Suggested we respond again citing the Council’s Biodiversity Strategy.
Report from Bruce Cutts from Environment Victoria
Bruce and others have met with Oscar Craig/Grant the senior advisor to the Environment Minister. Such topics as the reform of the Wildlife Act 1975, The Great Outdoors Taskforce and the Trust for Nature funding were discussed. Also the Western Plains Grassland- 15,000 hectares is being bought by State Government for protection and conservation. Logging being done under the guise of strategic fire breaks.
Rossdale Golf Course
The state’s Priority Standing Advisory Committee report has been released and it is appears the news isn’t good for the retention of the golf course.
The Committee recommends the proponent does the following and more:
- Review and update biodiversity, tree and cultural heritage reports.
- Finalise assessment on contamination, hydrology, traffic and servicing.
- Ensure the Ramsar wetlands are protected.
The Save Rossdale group have a big fight ahead of them.
