Adelaide Hills Council owns and manages approximately 1200ha of native vegetation and 790ha of land and roads managed for conservation purposes. Many of these locations host threatened plant and wildlife species, even if currently degraded. Protecting Council’s native vegetation and conservation lands is vital.
To protect Council’s native vegetation and sites managed for conservation purposes
To help prevent habitat loss and fragmentation
To support threatened and declining native plants and animals in the region.
The Policy has also been developed to provide clear guidelines to assist Council’s decision making with regard to protection of native vegetation and land or roads managed for conservation purposes. Council would like to ensure the Policy is easy to understand and follow.
Council will look to develop useful guidelines and Frequently Asked Questions for residents and developers. These will become valuable tools to assist practical application of the Policy in regard to proposals and application processes.
