Tree Pruning at the Cowra Golf Club - Flying Fox Camp Managment Plan
Alliance funding 2021
Central West Councils Environment & Waterways Alliance has funded a range of projects for our Member Councils in 2021 that will contribute to positive environmental outcomes across our region. Grant funds of up to a maximum of $5,000 has been distributed to Councils who were able to demonstrate matched funds for environmental projects within their 2021-22 budgets and operational plans.
Funding under this round was specifically for on-ground works and not projects that are predominantly based on planning, reporting or assessment.
Tree Pruning at the Cowra Golf Club - Flying Fox Camp Managment - COWRA Council
The tree pruning project will support the Cowra Golf Club Flying Fox Camp as identified in the Flying Fox Camp Management Plan. Cowra Council sought grant funding to protect the permanent Flying Fox Camp at the Cowra Golf Club and as a result a level 8 arborist prepared a tree management strategy. This grant will assist in commencing this strategy. The objectives of this project include protecting the flying fox camp from harm, increase awareness of the importance of flying-foxes and their status as threatened species and assisting the Cowra Golf Club to manage the interaction between the users and the Flying fox population.
Further information will be added to this page as the project proceeds.
