The City advises that the Burns Beach café/restaurant project continues to progress in line with the broader masterplan.
Other key features of the plan include new public toilets and change rooms, new playground, pathways and car bays, open lawn areas, shelters, picnic settings and barbecues, general landscaping improvements and associated minor works.
The development requires approval under the Environmental Protection Act 1986, which the City has been progressing. In late-2023 the Commonwealth Government announced the listing of Honeymyrtle Shrubland on Limestone Ridges of the Swan Coastal Plain Bioregion as a threatened ecological community under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999.
As the threatened ecological community may be present on site, the City is required to undertake further assessment of the site, including an additional flora survey in Spring 2024.
The City looks forward to further progressing this exciting and eagerly-anticipated project.
