Meeting papers

Awareness                “Engage local schools in regular practical education around looking after our beaches and biosphere, contributing to
and education            sustainable practices and environmental preservation.“

                         “Provide guidelines and information to real estate agencies about access and inclusions for bordering properties being
                         advertised.“

                         “Appropriate wording of communications. At present, communications are accusatory and at times defamatory.”
Educate dog owners       “Education of dog owners of the impact of permitting dog faeces to remain on the beach and approaches.”

                         “When providing information to residents and visitors, include locations for: A) patrolled beach areas / times and B) beach
                         access points where "no dogs are allowed."
Communication tools      “Local laws policing is currently totally inadequate and needs much greater funding. Beach signage is woeful. Some of the
and tactics              information is wrong and none of the signage is large enough or sufficiently clear.”

                         “Communication may be in the form of targeted ads on social media or online (eg Facebook/Instagram/Tiktok/TV/email).
                         Physical communication may be given twice a year, not regularly to reduce waste.“

                         “Perhaps some well designed, appealing signs posted at beaches explaining the flora and fauna to be found in that
                         particular location and education Re the importance of sand dunes ( do not tramp on them). A better way to educate the
                         general public than letterbox drops.”
Real estate / short term “Provide guidelines and information to real estate agencies about access and inclusions for bordering properties being
rentals                  advertised.”

                         “Regarding short term rentals - involve them in the rehabilitation of the dunes - tree planting, spinifex planting, turtle
