Mini-Expo

This month, Ellenbrook Bushland Group, along with other local community groups, will be taking part in Mini-Expo at the Ellenbrook Community Library.  

This is your chance to come and chat with resident experts, and find out more about our local plants and animals.  Ask questions about wildlife, bushwalking and ecosystems.  Feel free to bring photos you'd like to share with us, or have identified.  We will have a touch table and lots of interesting bits and pieces to look at.

TIME: 10.00am – 2.00pm
LOCATION: Ellenbrook Community Library, 90 Main St, Ellenbrook

Industrial Land Strategy - please make your voice heard!

Interested in the future of Perth?  Want to know where the next industrial development might be? 

The WA Government has released a document called "Industrial Land Strategy 2009 - Perth and Peel", and this is now open for you to make comments.  All submissions are completely confidential.  The closing date for comments is 31 March 2010.

The document shows the plans for future development of industrial sites around Perth.  It lists priority and possible future industrial sites, which may become places for general and light industry.  The possible industrial sites include areas close to Ellenbrook, such as Bullsbrook townsite, North Ellenbrook, Gnangara, Whiteman, Pinjar South and Jandabup.  It includes maps, and discusses why each site might, or might not, be good as an industrial area.

If you want to take a look at this document, please go to the Department of Planning website, where you can download a PDF -
