An Update on the Kerkhoff Carnaby Cockatoo Proposal
The Kerkhoff Carnaby Group and Shire would like to provide an update on the status of the Kerkhoff Carnaby Cockatoo Proposal, which was discussed at length in Wednesday night’s Council Meeting.
As you may be aware, the Kerkhoff Carnaby Group (KCG) has raised funding to construct a large, 11 metre high, Carnaby cockatoo structure. Council gave its in principle support to the project on 21st October 2020, and consequently a formal project proposal was provided by KCG on 2 October 2023.
Through the Kerkhoff Carnaby Working Group, it was agreed between the Kerkhoff Carnaby Group and the Shire that the project will remain the responsibility of the KCG until the structure has been built and will then be handed over to the Shire to manage thereafter.
