McEwen's Beach Revegetation - Stage 1

The McEwens Beach Progress Association, in collaboration with council, have proposed revegetating part of the foreshore reserve adjacent to the swimming enclosure at the southern end of McEwens Beach.

The area selected is known locally as ‘the Knoll’ and is about 1500m2 in size. This project will reinforce the existing native vegetation and help stabilise the foredune. The project also aims to improve access to the beach and swimming enclosure.

A community planning session was held on Tuesday, January 7, with residents and other stakeholders in attendance to finalise the extent of planting, review plant selections and zonation and provide feedback on other project components.

The concept design, which includes the planting zonation and a table detailing the plants that are proposed to be included in the planting pallet, can be found here.

Online consultation is currently open for residents who were unable to attend the session. The survey and site mapping tool will be open for feedback until 11.59pm on Tuesday, January 21, 2025.
