It is proposed the Water Space Study will conduct field surveys, mapping work, data collection and run stakeholder and public engagement events to focus on the following core themes:

• Assets and Asset Management
• Mooring Strategy and Navigation

• Water quality & Environmental Enhancement
• Recreation and Leisure

Throughout the process Community Engagement will be an important element, including consultation, increased awareness, education, health and well-being, volunteering and recreation”
