The ongoing Marengo dune and roadway compromise-an example
22 reports and still the matters below are unresolved with the newly funded empire focusing on a strip of sand that some Putin like Premiers friends thought would give them territory that they don't presently control. Creating a wall and a war where visas will be required to pass over.
Unfortunately I have to remind you that this new empire will like many before it, keep creating plans and dreaming of new things - perhaps no more balls or people in the area ?
Many see it as a way of getting focus ,money and power, but this is arse about because the issue is environment wide knowledge, cooperation and avoiding the disintegration created by those who would focus on only their issue.
The question those of us who used to work together to get good catchment plans that worked , respected BOTH the rights of people to public land AND the environment . Without that commitment from government , will GORCAPA ever work ?
So many plans , so little sustainability .How is GORCAPA going to increase beach and public land access without more effective parking and access - Do they plan to get rid of the golf course or get Vicroads and Council to move the road ?
There is a good old plan for North Apollo bay which has been ignored in the rush to build houses right up the road ;
No new plan addresses the current big threats to proper drainage , access and parking ,beachdune dune protection and land aquisition which still remain totally unresolved at BOTH ends of town.
Real plans that work integrate across BOTH SIDES of the GOR and deal with the drainage, parking roadway and beach dune preservation requirements that so far have been completely dodged to the damage of Victorian public assets .
The only plans that work are ones which last and don't keep creating Authorities ; which truly respect local competencies. and the absolute need for cooperation. http://thinkaboutthismate.blogspot.com
