Mackay Regional Botanic Gardens - Masterplan 2010

The Mackay Regional Botanic Gardens opened in May 2003 and has been developed under a Stage by Stage plan of construction and planting from 2001 to 2020, based on a Masterplan developed by Landscape Architect Lawrie Smith AM in 2000.

2009 saw the commencement of a review of the Masterplan 2000 document to update the development schedules and create current relevance incorporating climate change and conservation policies not previously highlighted.

The Masterplan 2010 draft document is now available to view on the Mackay Regional Botanic Gardens website at www.mackayregionalbotanicgardens.com.au/what_can_i_learn/masterplan_2010. The Mackay Regional Botanic Gardens appreciate any comments or suggestions prior to June 21, 2010. Feedback will be incorporated or annexed and in July, the Masterplan 2010 will be officially adopted by Mackay Regional Council.

Please contact Dale Arvidsson - Curator at dale.arvidsson@mackay.qld.gov.au or phone 07 4952 7300 with your feedback.
