Voluntary Conservation Agreements offer legal protection to the environmental values of your property for generations to come.
This is done through applying a covenant to your property, which is lodged on the title of the property by the State Government and binds future owners to its conditions.
You can apply a VCA over the entire property or only part of.
Council will help you through this process and with long term planning for your property.
In addition to covering all costs involved with the registering of the covenant, Council will also provide you with a yearly grant to help with the management of your property.
The extension officer will help you develop a management plan and advise you on how to complete this plan to get the most from the grant.
You will need to check with the extension officer if your property is eligible for a VCA. For more information, call IndigiScapes at 3824 8611.
