12.01.2022 REEL FACTS What weve heard: The marina has become a residential development Reality: Residential development has always been a key part of the proposed marina. The amount of land allocated for homes has not changed significantly from the previous plan. What HAS changed is the location of them. ... By separating the different uses of the site into precincts, we can make sure each area has the necessary amenities, while avoiding potential conflicts, such as competing land uses, noise or traffic. Including a residential component in the marina provides a critical mass of people in the area, which helps to activate the spaces all year round, creates a safer environment, and provides more potential customers to support local businesses.

12.01.2022 Last week, our Aboriginal Development Managers from Yunga Foundation shared some of the amazing cultural context work they’ve done on Ocean Reef Marina with a few of the businesses, residents and stakeholders involved in the project.

10.01.2022 ROCK ON! In 1956, three centuries after the Vergulde Draeck (Gilt Dragon) was wrecked off the coast of WA, a rock was discovered on the beach at Ocean Reef, carved with the words ‘Vergulde Draeck 1656’. While the engraving was tested and ultimately found to be a hoax, the intrigue and debate over the rock continues to this day.

07.01.2022 REEL FACTS What weve heard: The marina will never happen Reality: Yes, the marina has been talked about for many years. But we are doing everything we can to make it happen. ... A huge amount of work has already been completed by the City of Joondalup, including the design of the initial concept plans, extensive community engagement, and plan refinements in line with community feedback. The City also progressed the planning and environmental approvals processes, which are expected to be finalised later this year. The State Government has committed $120million over the life of the project, beginning with $35million over the first four years. This funding will take us through the marina approvals and construction of the marine infrastructure. A team of expert consultants are on board, including planners, civil and coastal engineers, landscape architects and sustainability and environmental consultants. Working with this team, we have refined the Concept Plan to address previous concerns from the community and ensure the plan is viable and appropriate for the location. The planning and environmental approvals are progressing, the Landscape Masterplan (showing the public realm layout and amenities) is expected to be complete in the next couple of months, and the Detailed Design (including specific materials and finishes) will be completed next year. Were working hard to get everything ready to start construction by the end of next year.
