Raglan/Mount Cole Roadside Rehabilitation Committee
The Raglan/Mount Cole Roadside Rehabilitation Committee has been established to develop a rehabilitation program for roadsides in the Raglan-Mount Cole area affected by the February 2024 bushfire.
The committee includes community members who nominated to participate, along with representatives from Council and other stakeholders.
The role of the committee is to collaboratively develop a rehabilitation program for fire affected roadsides in the Raglan-Mount Cole area, with a focus on enhancing biodiversity, supporting habitat connectivity, and minimising the spread of invasive species.
Regular updates about the committee's decisions and activities will be included on this page. If you have any questions or feedback, please phone Council's Recovery Team on 1300 797 363 or email recovery@pyrenees.vic.gov.au.
