This Regional Environment Strategy (RES) provides an overarching framework for the delivery of the EMRC’s environmental services, as agreed by member Councils, to ensure that the environment of Perth’s Eastern Region is protected and maintained.

The EMRC’s Strategic Plan for the Future 2010/11 to 2013/14 sets in place a vision for the organisation to “be a responsive and innovative leader in assisting Perth’s Eastern Region to be a great place to live, work, play and do business”. The EMRC’s vision for the RES for Perth’s Eastern Region builds upon this context and is defined as:

A region supporting healthy ecosystems and habitat for flora and fauna, where the air, land and waterways are clean, there is green space, highly efficient buildings and transport systems, renewable energy and minimal waste and emissions.

In order to reach this vision, the strategy aims to ensure a sustainable approach for the future development, protection and management of Perth’s Eastern Region.

The RES covers the main activity areas of:
• Land Use Planning;
• Biodiversity Conservation;
• Climate Change;
• Water;
• Advocacy; and
• Engagement.
