  • Koonung Creek Linear Park Management Plan 2011
    Message from the Mayor Our vision is for a vibrant, safe and culturally diverse community that fosters participation, connectedness, harmony, social inclusion, health and wellbeing. Our parks and reserves are the 'green lungs' for the City and are areas for our enjoyment. When we visit our parks and reserves we feel a sense of wellbeing. We need to plan for them so they can be enjoyed today and be there tomorrow for our children. A well-designed, planned and managed urban green space provides significant aesthetic, social, psychological and environmental benefits for their users. The Koonung Creek Linear Park is enjoyed by many of those who live in Bulleen, Doncaster, Doncaster East and Donvale and our neighbouring municipalities as well. When we improve the access to our natural setting we are improving the quality of life in our neighbourhoods. We are fortunate to have this wonderful “green” environment accessible by so many of our residents to enjoy a walk, cycle and time in a natural setting. There are many benefits for people who visit green, open spaces including: an opportunity to increase physical activity; lower stress levels; experience changes of scenery; and, a place to wind down. I would like to thank the community for their contribution to the consultation process as it has greatly assisted us to identify the issues and opportunities which have shaped the development of the recommendations. GEOFF GOUGH Mayor Executive Summary The Koonung Creek Linear Park Management Plan has been prepared to continue to protect and enhance the environmental values of the Park balanced with the provision of recreational opportunities and experiences in a mix of urban and natural setting, including, walking, cycling, dog walking, commuting and nature appreciation.

  • Controlling Deer in Victoria
    Controlling deer in Victoria AN OPEN LETTER TO The Hon. The Hon. The Hon. Jaclyn Symes Lily D’Ambrosio Lisa Neville Minister for Minister for Energy, Minister for Water Regional Development, Environment and Minister for Police and Agriculture and Resources Climate Change Emergency Services Level 36, 121 Exhibition St, Level 16, 8 Nicholson St, Level 17, 8 Nicholson St, Melbourne VIC 3000 East Melbourne VIC 3002 East Melbourne VIC 3002 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] 2 May 2019 Dear Ministers Symes, D’Ambrosio and Neville, We are writing to you in your roles as key natural resource Ministers in the Victorian Government. We are concerned that Victoria’s Draft Deer Management Strategy (2018) fell far short of addressing the considerable problems feral deer bring to peri-urban and regional communities, and to wetlands, catchments and the natural environment. We offer here some recommendations for the final strategy; it is a critical opportunity to control deer populations and to reverse the increasing impacts they are having. We agree with the rough estimate for the state’s deer population, as documented in the draft strategy, at ‘between several hundred thousand up to one million or more’. The population is growing rapidly at an exponential rate1, and far exceeds the capacity for control by recreational hunters. Research into the native habitats of the four main species of deer in Victoria indicates that they can continue to extend their range, potentially occupying almost every habitat in the nation2. Victoria’s biodiversity is at risk.

There are two key evaluation questions for fish in coastal Victorian rivers, which were developed in collaboration with CMAs. KEQ 1 Do environmental flows enhance immigration of diadromous fishes in coastal streams?

  • Surface Water Flooding – Presentation to NEL Panel Hearing, 8 Th August 2019 – Michael Cawood Cut Back Version Due to Time Constraints As Delivered at the Hearing
    Surface Water Flooding – Presentation to NEL Panel Hearing, 8 th August 2019 – Michael Cawood Cut back version due to time constraints as delivered at the Hearing Slide #1 Mr Chairman, Members. Introduce self and principal area of expertise as per evidence. Earlier this year, I reported to Carey Baptist Grammar School on flood related matters and the North East Link Project. That report was subsequently incorporated into Carey’s submission to this Panel Hearing. I will be talking to that report. Slide #2 Carey’s Bulleen Sports Complex is located on the Yarra River and Koonung Creek floodplain at the top end of what is generally known as the Chandler basin. Use and development since the site was purchased in 1959 has been mindful of the flood risk. The proposed Project’s southern portal and associated infrastructure are also located within the Chandler basin a short distance upstream and a little further away from the Yarra River and from Koonung Creek than the Campus. To recap from Carey’s submission, there are a number of key flood related issues for the Bullen Campus. Key issue 1 is changes to the characteristics of Yarra River floods, particularly for those events that occur more frequently and are smaller than (i.e. are not as deep as) the 1% Annual Exceedance Probability Yarra River event; Key issue 2 is changes to the character of Koonung Creek and the resulting changes to flood characteristics in the reach between Bulleen Road and the Creek’s confluence with the Yarra River; Key issue 3 relates to relocation of the Campus access road to the north of its current location.

    The many dedicated groups already working in the catchment the are limited in their ability to deal with the scale of works necessary to improve the condition of the area. promise A coordinated approach is needed to shape future urban and the vision natural environments so they set standards for and attract the most sustainable 21st century investments and development. iving Links will establish an interconnected web of habitat corridors, linking existing open space, conservation reserves, recreation L facilities and the many fragmented patches of native vegetation across the catchment. It will the enhance the social and economic attractiveness of the region’s rapidly developing commercial, industrial and new residential centres by strengthening their present relationship with the natural environment. Fortunately, many of the basic building blocks needed to help turn the vision into reality already exist. The he Dandenong Creek catchment extends from the Dandenong catchment contains numerous regionally significant Ranges National Park near Kilsyth, sweeps south to include parks such as Jells Park, Shepherd’s Bush and the the rapidly growing industrial and urban areas surrounding Bushy Park Wetlands.
