The park is located on the western edge of Sorell on a land title of 21.7 ha. The Park is currently used by the Sorell Senior Football Club, Sorell Junior Football Club, Sorell Little Athletics, Sorell Senior/Junior Cricket Club, Sorell Super Rules and the Dodges Ferry Horseriding Club. The South East United Football Club will be based at the Park, having been formed in 2013 to provide a supportive local pathway beyond junior soccer for players 13 years and over from Sorell and surrounding districts. A netball club is being formed in 2014 with the planned construction of netball court facilities to cater for junior, ladies, midweek and mixed netball use. The park also has a BMX jumps circuit and a skatepark. The park attracts informal use including recreational walking, exercise/walking with dogs, running and play. Council has allowed the use of a small portion of the park off Montagu Street for used by recreational vehicles for overnight stays. The site caters for up to 20 vehicles and provides a shelter and grey water disposal outlet. Planning options for Pembroke Park were investigated in 19971 leading to the development of a concept master plan. The plan assessed existing use and management of the park, potential demand for sport and recreational use and included a concept master plan. Over the next decade some facilities were upgraded (e.g. sealing of the car park, locked gate) and some new facilities were added including the skate park and bmx circuit. In 2013 a revised concept plan2 was prepared for Pembroke Park to facilitate funding applications in the lead up to State and Federal elections. 1 HMT Planning Pty Ltd 1997. Future Planning Options for Pembroke Park, Sorell 2 M2a Architects Master Plan – Stage 2 with Landscaping 2 Pembroke Park Master Plan In 2013 Council received $1.19 million in Federal Government funding under the Regional Development Australia Fund for improvements to Pembroke Park. Works have included development of an amenities building, construction of the soccer pitch, harvesting stormwater for reuse and realignment of the boundary fence to provide a larger area for Little Athletics. The funding will also allow for some minor landscaping and car parking works. The PCYC Shed was later moved to Pembroke Park for use by groups requiring an indoor recreation space. In August 2014 the State Government announced a grant of $80,000 from the Community Support Levy for new multi-purpose courts at Pembroke Park. The courts will enable the Sorell Netball League to field up to 22 additional netball teams. 1.2 P REPARATION OF THE M ASTER P LAN Preparation of the current master plan has involved: a briefing with Council staff and the Pembroke Park Advisory Committee (PPAC); review of relevant reports, policies and information; analysis of development and demographic trends and possible implications for the Sorell municipality; consultation with Sport and Recreation Tasmania; preparation of a new base plan for the park; a site visit/discussions with the key stakeholders and users (e.g. clubs, groups) to identify needs, issues, future plans, and partnership opportunities; contact with potential clubs/groups that may or are considering use or relocation to Pembroke Park e.g. Sorell Bowls Club, Sorell Tennis Club, Sorell District High School, Sorell Primary School; identification of the key issues and opportunities for future development and upgrading of Pembroke Park; review the vision and guiding principles for the Park; Section 1 Introduction 3 preparation of the overall master plan showing layout, future use and facilities, Action Plan and cost estimates; review of the draft master plan by Council staff and PPAC; and review of the master plan and presentation of it to a Councillors meeting/workshop. SECTION 2 CONTEXT 2.1 P OLICY F RAMEWORK There are a number of relevant Council plans and policies to consider in planning for the future of Pembroke Park including the: Sorell Council Strategic Plan 2014-2018; Draft Sorell Interim Planning Scheme 2014; Draft Sorell Streetscape Plan 2014; Sorell Township Urban Master Plan 2009; Municipal Recreation Plan 2002; and Future Planning Options for Pembroke Park 1997. S ORELL C OUNCIL S TRATEGIC P LAN 2014- 2018 The Plan sets out guiding principles, the primary focus and key focus areas to guide the development and implementation of Council’s Operating Plans and Budgets for the next 5 years and beyond. Whilst not specific to Pembroke Park, there are a number of guiding principles that apply to planning and management of the Park, including: striving for financial sustainability; maximising Sorell Council’s value to the municipality; facilitating growth and new opportunities; prioritising resources; engaging and communicating with the community; and supporting regional cooperation. 6 Pembroke Park Master Plan D RAFT S ORELL

  • Hudsonian Godwit (Limosa Haemastica) at Orielton Lagoon, Tasmania, 09/03/2018
    Hudsonian Godwit (Limosa haemastica) at Orielton Lagoon, Tasmania, 09/03/2018 Peter Vaughan and Andrea Magnusson E: T: Introduction: This submission pertains to the observation and identification of a single Hudsonian Godwit (Limosa haemastica) at Orielton Lagoon, Tasmania, on the afternoon of the 9th of March 2018. The bird was observed in the company of 50 Bar-tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica) and a single Black-tailed Godwit (Limosa limosa), and both comparative and diagnostic features were used to differentiate it from these species. Owing to the recognised difficulties in differentiating similar species of wading birds, this submission makes a detailed analysis of the features used to identify the godwit in question. If accepted, this sighting would represent the eighth confirmed record of this species in Australia, and the second record of this species in Tasmania. Sighting and Circumstances: The godwit in question was observed on the western side of Orielton Lagoon in Tasmania, at approximately 543440 E 5262330 N, GDA 94, 55G. This location is comprised of open tidal mudflats abutted by Sarcicornia sp. saltmarsh, and is a well- documented roosting and feeding site for Bar-tailed Godwits and several other species of wading bird. This has included, for the past three migration seasons, a single Black-tailed Godwit (extralimital at this location) associating with the Bar-tailed Godwit flock. The Hudsonian Godwit was observed for approximately 37 minutes, between approximately 16:12 and 16:49, although the mixed flock of Bar-tailed Godwits and Black-tailed Godwits was observed for 55 minutes prior to this time. The weather during observation was clear skies (1/8 cloud cover), with a light north- easterly breeze and relatively warm temperatures (wind speed nor exact temperature recorded).
