Wet Tropics World Heritage Vital Corridor Buy Back Scheme
The Kuranda Region is under threat from rampant residential development. The historically zoned RURAL land parcels are starting to change hands from private to developers as, unfortunately, they’re the ones with the $$!
*The Kuranda Region Planning Group is looking for other community members to engage in this activity.
We have material from the Daintree Buyback Scheme experience to read through – see list right.
Most of this project will require online participation only.
Please contact us with your expressions of interest.
