Lake Brearley Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation works will begin at Lake Brearley in accordance with the Maylands Lakes Conservation Plan. This will restore and improve the vegetated area around the Lake as part of the water quality improvement works. The project aims to:

• Improve water quality.
• Provide habitat for native animals.
• Improve the visual amenity of the Lake.

Works will occur from May to June 2023 and will involve:

• Removing the non-endemic species Casuarina cunninghami, Melaleuca quinquenervia and Callistemon which are dominating the area and preventing the development of a fully functioning foreshore habitat.
• Modification of the bank to allow revegetation.
• Community planting day to install native endemic plant species.

During works a temporary fence will be in place to ensure community safety with pedestrian management.
