Green light for looking after our environment

13 August 2021

The Greening Strategy and Vegetation Management Policy was given the green light by Council, with both strategy plans adopted at the 28 July 2021 Ordinary Meeting. Check out the Council Meeting minutes here.

The Greening Strategy outlines a series of actions designed to manage and enhance tree canopy cover and green spaces, with a particular focus in built-up areas.

The region-wide Vegetation Management Policy focuses on retaining significant trees and tracts of mature vegetation through a targeted approach. Once introduced later this year, it will replace the existing Tree Preservation Order in the Great Lakes region.
