Central President John Baker recently represented local landholders at the CRC TiME Post-Mining Land Use workshop in Moranbah. The discussions focused on how mining regions can transition beyond mine closure, including future land uses, rehabilitation outcomes, and opportunities for new industries.
A key message was the importance of planning now for the future of our regional communities. As mines close, maintaining essential services and creating new economic opportunities will be critical to ensuring our towns remain viable places to live and work.
These conversations are an important first step, and landholder input will continue to play a vital role in shaping the future of our regions. If you have ideas or thoughts on post-mining land use, we'd love to hear them.
