Sadly, it appears that WA Govt. guidelines for sea level rise are well out of date:
Ref 1: www.wa.gov.au/government/publications/wa-coastal-zone-strategy
Ref 2 www.wa.gov.au/system/files/2021-07/CST-WA_Coastal_Zone_Strategy.pdf
Ref 3 www.wa.gov.au/system/files/2021-07/CST-WA_Coastal_Zone_Strategy_summary_brochure_web.pdf
Ref 4 www.transport.wa.gov.au/mediaFiles/marine/MAC_R_SeaLevelChangeInWesternAustraliaReport.pdf
Extract from Ref 2:
"The WA Government has adopted 0.9 metres for sea level rise over a 100-year planning timeframe for future coastal development"
It appears that the out-dated source for this information is Ref 4:
Ref 4 (02/02/2010 DoT) extract:
It is recommended that this advice be reviewed when the IPCC Working Group I contribution to the Fifth Assessment Report is finalised (currently scheduled for 2013).
The IPCC has released Assessment Reports 5 and 6 since these guidelines found their way into government policy.
As stated in the WA Gov. guidelines - minimization of risk to public funds is of primary concern when approving new developments.
In the case of Pinnaroo Point, a major "beneficiary" to proposed protection works is the PRIVATE Hillary Beach Club (under construction).
The City of Joondalup meeting of council 23/05/2023 has several items of critical interest, especially for local kiters and wingers.
