Resources Overview
Since our formation in 1996, Norman Creek Catchment Coordinating Committee, in partnership with Brisbane City Council, has initiated a large number of projects in the Catchment. Some of these are ongoing and others are in a maintenance phase.
As a partner in BCC’s Norman Creek Catchment 2012-2031 Master Plan, N4C has developed strategic concept plans for areas within our catchment and submitted them to the Council. These are available for download from our Project site pages below, or from Strategic Plans.
You can contribute to these community-driven projects in many ways: becoming a member, active volunteering on site, technical expertise, financial support or even being our eyes and ears in the community. Browse through our project pages and check our Google Map of Project Sites, and you might find one that’s near you!
