Project governance: what’s the difference between the Flood Study Advisory Reference Group and the Flood Prevention Association?

The purpose of the Flood Study Advisory Reference Group is to provide guidance, local knowledge and a connection to community for the Central Goldfields Shire Council in the development and implementation of the updated Carisbrook Flood Management Plan (CFMP). This group has been appointed by Council.

The Carisbrook Flood Prevention Association is a community-led committee rather than a committee appointed by Council. The Flood Prevention Association is prepared to work with the community, council, the new committee of Council and authorities to have the Fred Spain recommendations completed.
