As part of the Revitalising Geographe Waterways Program, the City of Busselton is tasked with preparing Water Management Plans for the Lower Vasse River and Toby Inlet, in consultation with key stakeholders and the local community. The management plans will identify long-term management actions for improving overall water quality of the two waterways. The local community is being widely consulted through the development of the plans to engage the community in establishing management objectives and ensure community ownership of the final Plans.
The City of Busselton is now inviting the community to review the draft vision and management objectives in a quick survey to ensure the work to date is aligned with community’s expectations for the future management of Toby Inlet and the Lower Vasse River. You are welcome to complete one or both surveys depending on your specific interest.
As part of the Revitalising Geographe Waterways
Program, the City has been working with
the community and other partners in developing a draft vision and management
objectives for the Toby Inlet. They will inform the development of a water management plan for Toby Inlet.
Toby Inlet is a small estuary to
the east of the Dunsborough town site in the Geographe catchment. The Inlet
provides significant aesthetic and recreation values to adjoining Quindalup
residents and the wider Geographe community. During the summer months the Inlet
becomes blocked often resulting in its waters becoming stagnant and smelly,
with poor visual amenity.
We're inviting the community to review the draft vision and management objectives
in a quick survey to ensure the work to date is aligned with community’s expectations for the future management of Toby Inlet.
Every participant who takes part in the survey will go in the draw to WIN a $100 voucher to Toby's Restaurant courtesy of the Ramada Resort Dunsborough - Toby’s Restaurant (opposite Flametree Winery
on Caves Rd)!
You are also welcome to complete the Lower Vasse River Survey.
