Shoalhaven City Council’s beaches and assets are at risk of coastal erosion and a significant proportion of the Council’s assets are also threatened by coastal hazards such as sea-level rise.

In response to these threats the Council has prepared a development control plan that provides guidance on, and provisions for, the use of land. The Council is carrying out monitoring and evaluation (M&E) activities to assess project outcomes. Here we describe an example of an M&E template used for a specific project.
