  • Desired Environmental Outcomes
    CairnsPlan – March 2009 Chapter 2 Desired Environmental Outcomes 2.1 Overview The Desired Environmental Outcomes (DEOs) are the foundation of the CairnsPlan. The DEOs are the link between the purpose of the Integrated Planning Act of seeking to achieve ecological sustainability and the measures of the CairnsPlan. The DEOs: • Represent what is sought to be achieved through the CairnsPlan; • Relate to the environment that is defined broadly in the Integrated Planning Act to cover matters and conditions relating to the natural, built and human environments; and • Are expressions of the end states rather than means to ends. The DEOs relate to the whole of the City. Each DEO is sought to be achieved to the extent practicable having regard to each of the other DEOs. The DEOs are grouped under the topics reflecting the three strands of ecological sustainability identified by the Integrated Planning Act: • Ecological processes and natural systems; • Economic development; and • Cultural, economic, physical and social wellbeing of people and communities. However, there are close interrelationships between the DEOs. In a number of cases, elements of the subject of a DEO are mapped to illustrate the overarching planning strategies associated with the DEO. In these cases, the identified elements of the mapping are part of the DEO. Important issues associated with the DEOs are identified in the short discussion which follows each DEO. 2-1 CairnsPlan – March 2009 2-2 CairnsPlan – March 2009 2.2. Ecological Processes and Natural Systems 2.2.1 Ecological Processes and Biodiversity The biodiversity and nature conservation values of the marine, terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems within the City are conserved and enhanced.

    64 of 166 5.9. DRAFT RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN REPORT AUTHOR Margaret Ross-Kelly, Community Development Officer First Peoples MANAGER Lisa Golding, Acting Manager People and Community Services DEPARTMENT People and Community Services RECOMMENDATION That Council: 1. Approves the draft Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) to submit to Reconciliation Australia for their consideration and endorsement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As a Local Government Authority for the Douglas region, Council has a critical role to play in bringing the community together. Council acknowledges that meaningful, respectful and productive relationships with First People’s and Communities are important to the commitment of the reconciliation process. As per Council’s Operational Plan 2019-2021 in Section 1.1.1.: Celebrating our Communities: We will celebrate the diversity of our community and ensure that all infrastructure, programs and services are underpinned with inclusiveness and accessibility. In partnership with Reconciliation Australia and the community, implement a Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) that provides a way for Council to enhance relationships and creates opportunities, recognising the importance of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the Shire. In 2019, Douglas Shire Council resolved to develop a RAP with identified actions, timelines and targets for relationships, respect and opportunities. It is envisaged that the ‘Reflect’ RAP will form and honor a new beginning for our reconciliation journey and upon endorsement from Reconciliation Australia, Council will advance to the next stage of implementing the endorsed RAP into Council processes and undertakings. Upon completion and receiving endorsement of Council’s Reflect RAP, a RAP Reference Group will be established to assist with and monitor the implementation of the RAP.
