Draft Coastal Management Plan
Council recently endorsed the draft Coastal Management Plan for public advertising.
The purpose of the Coastal Management Plan is to inform the Shire of appropriate future development and land use of coastal land under the ownership or management of the Shire. The Plan investigates and takes into account coastal hazards/risks and coastal processes so that we have a better understanding of how the areas of coastal land will form or be impacted over time. The Plan covers the coast of the district but focuses on more prominent “hotspots” and continues on from the Shire’s Coastal Hazard Risk Management and Adaptation Plan (CHRMAP) in 2016.
The Plan is comprehensive but is broken down into sections for the 3 sectors of the coast that form the recommended actions:
- Sector 1 Northern Beaches (Section 9.0, pg. 76)
- Sector 2 Dongara/Port Denison (Section 10.0, pg. 85)
- Sector 3 Southern Nodes (Section 11.0, pg. 111)
These sections may assist with refining to your area of interest on the topic.
