Muckleford Landcare has commenced the development of a community plan for the Chinaman Creek valley. The aim of the project is to develop a long term plan for the economic and environmental resilience of the Chinaman Creek catchment, and to prioritise and secure funding for immediate works in association with Connecting Country.
In early June most landholders in the valley received a questionnaire aimed at creating a snapshot of the current state of the catchment, and gaining some idea of the residents’ visions for the future. The data from the survey is being compiled by Landcare Facilitator, Max Schlachter, for presentation to a meeting of interested parties on Saturday, June 23. Using input gained from the survey responses and from this session Max will begin drafting a detailed plan.
All people interested in finding out more and/or contributing to the process are warmly invited to the meeting. Afternoon tea will be provided.
