a) it’s local and regional roles;b) the development of a focal point;c) the extension of the park boundaries to include the community centre(heritage listed Station Master’s House);d) rehabilitation measures to enhance its wildlife corridor status;e) the need to address car parking issues with the Railway Parade LocalCentre;f) the adoption of a planting theme; andg) the provision of user friendly facilities such as barbecues and parkinformation. (Engineering/Planning)Timeframe: 2002 / 2003Some creekline rehabilitation work (weed control, sedge planting) has beendone in the past (1998, 1999) however this was discontinued due to the lack offunding.Although not included in the Reserves Study, given that the reserve is notclassified as bushland, the park would benefit through the preparation of acreekline restoration plan (rather than a management plan) to enhance thenatural values of the area and create a wildlife corridor (refer to point (d)).The reserve has local values, however the park is unlikely to haveenvironmental values of regional significance. It is recognised however thatthere may be heritage values adjacent of regional significance ((a) and (c))and could be a focal point (b) for the local community.Note (e), (f) and (g) are category B strategies.Streetscape21. Request Western Power to replace all low voltage open wire powerlines withaerial bundled conductors over time and continue the use of plantation timber forpower poles. Underground power should be utilised wherever possible, even inlieu of aerial bundled cabling. (Engineering)Timeframe: 2001 / 200222. Request Telstra to undertake an intense indigenous landscaping programme toscreen its telephone exchange building on Lot 20 corner Hardey Road andRailway Parade from the road as this is a prominent corner. (Engineering)Timeframe: 2001 / 200223. That the Shire extend the tree canopy and native shrub programme to cover roadverges and provide those landowners who wish to revegetate the road verge withsuitable indigenous vegetation on the condition that they maintain it. (Engineering)
Timeframe: 2002 / 200324. That the Shire promote the planting of indigenous vegetation suitable to eachspecific road verge. This be achieved through the tree canopy and shrubprogramme and advice to landowners as appropriate. (Engineering)Timeframe:OngoingThis has already been achieved through the Wildlife Corridor Strategy, wherebyletters were sent to all residents in the Shire with properties located withincorridors advising them to protect and revegetate their properties. This advicecreated a strong demand for plants through the Tree Canopy and UnderstoreyProgram.Additional planting on an ongoing basis would improve the streetscapes of theprecinct, particularly using locally native plant species.Movement Systems26. A local area traffic management plan for the Precinct be prepared including butnot limited to:a) how to best achieve Guideline M1; andb) provision of a roundabout at the intersection of Railway Parade and HardeyRoad) (Engineering)Timeframe: 2002 / 200327. Investigate the status of the Right of Way behind Lots 10, 13, 14 and 27 McGlewRoad with the view to closing and amalgamating it with adjoining lots.(Engineering/Planning)Timeframe: 2002 / 2003Pedestrian and Cycle Paths28. That the Shire’s Engineering Department be requested to include the additionaldual use path linkages as identified in Guideline M2 in its Dual Use/FootpathProgramme (Plan 4) for Glen Forrest.
