The Flying-fox Grants Program helped councils to manage flying-fox camps, consistent with the Flying-fox Camp Management Policy 2015.
Funded through the Department of Planning Industry and Environment and administered by Local Government NSW, this Program helped address identified flying-fox management issues facing NSW councils.
The Program assisted councils:
- Implement emergency flying-fox camp management measures following significant community impacts
- Prepare and implement flying-fox camp management plans
- Conduct communication, community engagement and education activities
