Read our submission to the Hardys Bay Foreshore Management Plan consultation.
It’s fantastic to see so many of our community engaging with the Central Council Council consultation process for our Foreshore Management Plan. This is an important opportunity to have a say in what our public facilities look like into the future.
Electrify Bouddi has made a submission to the Foreshore Management Plan, urging the Council to consider improvements to the foreshore infrastructure that will help reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and improve the community’s resilience to the future impacts of climate change.
Our submission includes:
- Maximise the generation of electricity from renewable sources, such as the incorporation of solar photovoltaic panels on the roofs and other surfaces of new or renovated structures, as appropriate.
- Maximise the use of natural lighting and ventilation within buildings, such as toilet facilities.
- Look for opportunities to promote electric vehicles (cars and bikes) by the establishing dedicated charging/parking facilities at key destinations in the area.
- Promote greater pedestrian and bicycle traffic through integrated pathways between key destinations in the area.
- Reduce the risks of climate impacts by taking account of forecasted sea level rises.
