COUNCIL MINUTES TUESDAY 28 AUGUST 2012 COMMUNITY CONSULTATION: This matter has been assessed under the Community Consultation Policy No. 1.2.11 which determines that the project would fit into the "Consult" category. There are elements of the BioLINC project that would generate significant public interest and it is expected that there would be general support for the environmental and recreational outcomes proposed. However, some of the initiatives may impact on the residents that live in close proximity to some of the project areas such as the Jubilee Park dune development through to Boscombe Avenue and any changes to traffic and parking arrangements. Coastcare have advised that they will manage this project therefore Coastcare should undertake the consultation process and demonstrate community support for the project. It is proposed that the following consultation mechanisms should occur: 1. Information circulated about the project to all the households in South City Beach; 2. A public information session be held; 3. Advertised in the local media with links to relevant website information about the project; 4. Feedback forms provided canvassing key parts of the project; 5. Other stakeholders such as the users of City Beach Oval, City of Perth Surf Lifesaving Club and restaurant operators at City Beach be consulted; and 6. Consultation undertaken over a four week period. SUMMARY: Cambridge Coastcare have submitted a proposal to implement a BioLINK project at City Beach that will result in enhancing the biodiversity of the area by creating a dune connection from north to south with coastal trails for access. It is proposed that the project of approximately $2.5m will be fully funded from grant sources and that Cambridge Coastcare will manage the implementation of the project. There are various aspects of the project that require further consideration and it is proposed to endorse the concept subject to modifications as outlined in the recommendation. Part of the modifications required relate to the integration of this project with the Town's Surf Club and commercial facilities development at City Beach and specifically related to traffic and parking. The Town will shortly be undertaking a traffic and parking study in relation to that project that will inform the Town's needs for the beach precinct in this regard. It is essential that the community and other stakeholders are informed of this project and their feedback obtained before finally approving the concept. It is recommended that Cambridge Coastcare undertake this consultation under the guidance of Council officers. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Coastcare BioLINC Project Proposal 2.
