What is the draft Masterplan?
The Snapper Rocks to Rainbow Bay Foreshore Precinct draft Masterplan will guide future infrastructure, services and facilities for the area, while aiming to protect and enhance the natural environment. The plan will consider the growing population of the area, and provide solutions that will enhance, protect and improve the precinct, to ensure it’s a destination that locals and visitors can enjoy for years to come.
How does this Masterplan work with the Greenmount Headland Revitalisation Project?
The Greenmount Headland Revitalisation Project team is also currently seeking feedback from the community on their project. Their project is currently in the design phase, meaning they are presenting some draft designs to the community. Conversely, the Snapper Rocks to Rainbow Bay Masterplan is yet to be drafted, and the project team is seeking input on the community that will inform the first draft of the Masterplan.
Together, these two projects will protect and enhance the natural environment of this iconic district to ensure they can be enjoyed by locals and visitors into the future.
