BAY OF FIRES MASTERPLAN SURVEY

The Bay of Fires Masterplan is an important project – its ambition is to set in place a roadmap for how the (sometimes competing) objectives for this special area can be balanced and what the priorities for investment in infrastructure should be.

The increase in tourism to the area offers significant economic benefits but can also negatively impact on sensitive natural, scenic and cultural values, as well as on local amenity. A Masterplan allows all the ‘bits of the puzzle’ to be put together and aims to ensure that decisions made by council, state government, the community and others looking to invest in the area are informed by and consistent with the plan.

Importantly, the development of the Masterplan will be informed by the views of those who live in and around or visit this area – so look out for opportunities to get and stay involved.
