The local Aboriginal corporation has indicated the Malgana people want motor vehicles restricted, though they support the proposal to develop a walking route.


The agenda for Wednesday’s meeting states that council is now in a difficult position, given its responsibility to manage environmental risk.


The agenda noted that council could leave some tracks open, close all deemed unnecessary and erect signage prohibiting driving off the tracks. This would be difficult to police but would benefit greatly from an educational program to help enforce track closures.


BirdLife Australia have confirmed the area is also important habitat for the red knot and lesser sand plover, both listed nationally as endangered, and the greater sand plover, listed nationally as vulnerable.
