The South Mosman Park Bushland is located within the Town of Mosman Park and is situated adjacent to the Swan River. It is a part of the Bush Forever Site 335 and is recognised as containing the only population on the mainland in the Perth Region of the species Boronia alata.
The Town of Mosman Park has recognised the intrinsic ecological and social values of the site which has resulted in the preparation of this Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for the South Mosman Park Bushland. The Plan includes a comprehensive vegetation survey detailing the existing environment to help determine possible conservation and restoration strategies to provide future direction for the bushland.
The objectives for the Management Plan include:
• balancing conservation and recreation, in an ecological sustainable manner and
taking into account the regional significance of the reserve
• involving the public in shared ownership, responsibility and management
• rehabilitating of degraded natural areas
• protecting flora, fauna and ancient shell bed values
• regulating public access.
