CANAL MANAGEMENT PLAN MCAG -Canal Management Plan Update
We’re continuing to work closely with Sunshine Coast Council to move the Canal Management Plan forward.
On 18 August we met with Council to go through the third draft. Progress is being made, but a few important issues still need further discussion. These include:
• Clearer definition of responsibilities (for both Council and residents)
• Vegetation removal
• Key performance measures
MCAG’s view remains that consistent, proper ongoing maintenance is essential to protect the long-term health of our canal system.
Council is currently progressing several actions ahead of our next workshop in September. We’ll keep everyone updated as things develop.
If you have any comments or questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with the committee.
Once the plan is finalised, we’ll hold a General Meeting for members so we can present it and discuss it together.
Thanks for your ongoing support.
