The petition calls for Incorporating the Ainslie Volcanics site into the Mt Ainslie Nature Reserve
- Call upon the ACT Government to urgently incorporate the following blocks into the Canberra Nature Park:
- AINSLIE: Blocks 2 and 3, Section 60
- CAMPBELL: Block 4, Section 63
- Petition the Federal Government to relinquish the area of the “Wolseley Drive” access corridor adjacent to these blocks, so it can also be incorporated into the Mt Ainslie Nature Reserve.
Is the purpose of this to stymie urban infill opportunities in inner Canberra, or to limit development around the future Argyle development site to maximise its value?
That area contains critically endangered Natural Temperate Grasslands, Box Gum Woodland and habitat for many threatened species.
