The Planning Team prepared the plan for the Conservation Commission of Western Australia. Brendan Dooley (Plan Coordinator) Department of Conservation and Land Management Tim Bowra Department of Conservation and Land Management Dennis Cluning City of Joondalup Phil Thompson City of Wanneroo PREFACE Regional parks are areas of regional open space that are identified by planning procedures as having outstanding conservation, landscape and recreation values. Regional parks provide the opportunity for a consortium of management agencies and private landowners to develop co-ordinated planning and management strategies. Regional parks were first proposed in the Stephenson - Hepburn Report of 1955, which later formed the basis of the Perth Metropolitan Region Scheme in 1963. Since then, State planning agencies have been acquiring suitable private land in anticipation of the time when regional parks would be formally created. In 1997, the State government announced a commitment to introduce legislation to give regional parks legal standing and vesting in the former NPNCA, now the Conservation Commission of Western Australia. Eight regional parks were recognised as formal identities, with the co-ordination of their management progressively transferred to the Department of Conservation and Land Management.

ICLEI is an international association of local governments and national and regional local government organisations that have made a commitment to sustainable development. LAB is a project within ICLEI’s biodiversity programme, that aims to assist local governments in their efforts to conserve and sustainably manage biodiversity. Local Action for Biodiversity involves a select number of cities worldwide and focuses on exploring the best ways for local governments to engage in urban biodiversity conservation, enhancement, utilisation and management. The Project aims to facilitate understanding, communication and support among decision-makers, citizens and other stakeholders regarding urban biodiversity issues and the need for local action. It emphasises integration of biodiversity considerations into planning and decision-making processes. Some of the specific goals of the Project include demonstrating best practice urban biodiversity management; provision of documentation and development of biodiversity management and implementation tools; sourcing funding from national and international agencies for biodiversity-related development projects; and increasing global awareness of the importance of biodiversity at the local level. The Local Action for Biodiversity Project is hosted within the ICLEI Africa Secretariat at the City of Cape Town, South Africa and partners with ICLEI, IUCN, Countdown 2010, the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI), and RomaNatura.
