 Photo: J Bounds The Molonglo development is an opportunity to demonstrate that we can have both urban development and protection of endangered biodiversity. Our vision is an urban development on degraded lands built to high levels of sustainable design, incorporating a functioning river corridor for wildlife and recreation, alongside a nationally significant woodland reserve buffered by rural conservation leases. Our slogan "Karma for Molonglo...healthy woodlands, healthy river, healthy living..." is a play on words, as the proposed Molonglo woodlands reserve will be Kama Reserve. Our hope is that providence will shine for the woodlands, wildlife and river corridor of the Molonglo area and that they will have a fortunate future. NEWS The Conservation Council put in a detailed submission on 25 June 2008 to the ACT Standing Committee on Planning and Environment Inquiry into Draft Variation to the Territory Plan No 281 – Molonglo and North Weston (DV).
