It's been a while since I last posted on this blog. Mainly because we have been busy and I have been away on leave.
The current situation with the project is that our consultants in Tredwell Management have, after much effort, compiled a draft verion of our Master (Concept) Plan today. The appointed committee will be reviewing this draft over the next week or so after which we will have a final version of the plan. We can then make the plan available to the public for review and comment as appropriate. Not long to go now then so please bear with us for a short while longer.
On April 14, 2014 the committee met with the Gnaala Karla Booja (GKB) Working Committee to provide them with an update on progress to date and to seek support to continue to further develop the concept of enhancing the experience at Boogin. The result of this meeting was a letter from GKB giving us direction as to how and who we should talk to in our on-going consultation process and approval in principle to continue forward. We will continue to keep GKB informed and I will be providing them with a consultation plan soon. This is a key milestone in the project and we very much appreciate the time afforded by the GKB Working Committee. Thanks also to Justine McAllister from SWALSC and to DPAW and our committee members for taking the time to meet with GKB.
The draft Master Plan identifies many opportunities and I think it will make very interesting reading. The plan has been constructed in such a way as to provide a number of options ranging from a long walk around the rock, short walks or even no walk at all but a major re-work of the existing picnic area. We will be guided by feedback from the Noongar Peoples during the consultation process.
That's about all for now. Stay tuned in the coming weeks when we are able to publish the Master Plan for comment.
Regards to everyone.

Project Coordinator.
