Building

The non-biobank area consists of 1 Ha in size which is a substantial area to create your weekender or ideal home subject to council approval (STCA). Ideally you would be looking at building an off-grid system for electricity, putting in your own enviro cycle septic system and of course your very own pure rain water from the sky. Outside this non-bio bank area the agreement maintains that no domestic animals or recreational motorbikes are allowed on a permanent basis. There are an amazing variety of 4WD tracks around the property for access.

Biobanking

This bushland has been saved and preserved through the bio bank land management system. This is a state government run initiative. A requirement to owning the block is the preservation of natural habitat. You will receive an income from the government that varies from year to year. This income will require you to manage the land through hiring contractors. We are currently in Year 4 of the active management plan. Each year the land is inspected by a government inspector and provided your doing the right thing, the money will then be released for the next year. No personal money is required to be spent
Examples of land management practices are;
Spraying Lantana, tobacco weed and other invasive species.
Fencing
Repair access trails

Please see this link to the government website to give you a better understanding of what is required.
