SE1 – Piccaninnie Ponds<br />
Component Issue Proposed Action Priority<br />
of Action<br />
Inappropriate<br />
management of creeks<br />
and drains across the<br />
cell.<br />
Scattered development<br />
between Danger Point<br />
and Green Point<br />
threatens conservation<br />
values of adjacent areas.<br />
<strong>Cell</strong> statistics show poor<br />
vegetation block<br />
connectivity and high<br />
block isolation,<br />
threatening habitat<br />
resilience.<br />
Lack of recognition of<br />
significant geological<br />
feature (Bridgewater<br />
formation).<br />
Work with landholders<br />
to establish better<br />
management practises or<br />
alternatives to drainage.<br />
Restrict further<br />
development and<br />
minimise impact of<br />
existing development.<br />
Seek opportunities, (eg<br />
through reservation,<br />
heritage agreements and<br />
assisted landholder<br />
action) to improve<br />
biodiversity linkages.<br />
Interpretation.<br />
Council to include map<br />
of the feature in its<br />
development plan.<br />
