Greens urge Government to adhere to policies and protect bushland at Shenton Park

The Greens have today called on the Government to adhere to its own planning policies and protect a patch of bushland under threat from development at Shenton Park.

Member for North Metropolitan Region Hon. Alison Xamon MLC said the bushland at the Shenton Park Rehabilitation Hospital site at Lumnos Street formed an important ecological link between Bush Forever sites at Shenton Park and Underwood Avenue bushlands.

She said the larger bushlands in the area linked Kings Park and Bold Park – two of Perth’s most iconic green spaces.
