2–9. Questions 2 to 9 relate to a total budget allocation of $2.8 million (spread over three financial years) to upgrade the public spaces of Eastern Valley Way Inlet Precinct.
The Territory approved a transfer of $2.65 million from this allocation to enable the first construction package of the Emu Inlet Precinct upgrade project to be undertaken in 2009/10.
$150,000 was retained for Stage 3 to prepare the FSP for Eastern Valley Way Inlet Precinct. The FSP is being prepared.
10. A master plan, the “Preliminary Sketch Plan Report: Belconnen Lakeshore Refurbishment”, to guide the strategic refurbishment of the southern foreshores of Lake Ginninderra was prepared for the Territory in 2002. The report and supporting plans identify three precincts: Precinct 1: Emu Inlet; Precinct 2: the Promenade and the Plaza; Precinct 3: Eastern Valley Way.
The upgrade of Precinct 2 (Project Stage1) was undertaken as two construction packages.
The upgrade of Precinct 1 (Project Stage 2) - Emu Inlet will also be constructed as two packages.
The upgrade of Precinct 3 (Project Stage 3) - Eastern Valley Way Inlet is at FSP stage.
11. The scope of the design for each precinct has been adjusted to achieve the objectives of the master plan. Each project proceeded through a process where the concept design options presented in the master plan were explored; unidentified or new issues addressed and the design fully developed before final documentation for construction was prepared. Any design changes were at FSP stage.
Design changes for Precinct 2 (Project Stage 1) - The Promenade and Plaza were established at the FSP stage for each construction package. Design changes related to improved access and lighting.
The design of Precinct 1(Project Stage 2) Emu Inlet was modified at FSP stage to appropriately address issues identified during preliminary investigations.
Design options are currently being explored in the course of FSP preparation for Precinct 3 (Project Stage 3) Eastern Valley Way Inlet.
