(over 300 trees of all species planted)

Wagga Urban Land Care and WWCC will assist with the planting of more trees and shrubs around both car parking areas on the 5th September. we also got lots of great tips for species identification and seed collection to assist with the regeneration of the Park.

We need as many MTB’ers to be there to assist please.

WWCC will be facilitating a meeting of interested stakeholders on 14th September to ensure that all stakeholders are on the same page in terms of the implementation of the Plan of Management for Pomingalarna Park. This will be a big leap forward and will ensure that the activities of each group complement each other.

Issues to be discussed include;
. Conservation earthworks (Major and Minor)
• Rehabilitation areas
• Planting varieties for various soil types/areas
• Road closures
• Discuss the works proposed in the Environment Trust application and prioritise works not included in this application.
• Trail networks – maintenance, closure, rerouting, new construction.
• Signage
• Shelters
• Restoration or removal of existing constructions? (Bird observatory, totems)
We’re hoping this meeting will develop a road map to enable us, and all sstakeholders to get on with the job and throw some of the enthusiasm we have at projects dear to our members.

More news as it comes to hand.

I have been in touch with Rangela Anger Lonergan to find out when we can begin consultations regarding the proposed trail loop. More news when it comes to hand.
