  JEFF ANGEL
  TOTAL ENVIRONMENT CENTRE, DIRECTOR
 

Landcom has a foot in both camps – the old development ethic and the new environmentally sustainable approach. There is a natural tension about this, not only internally at Landcom, but also in its dealings with the development sector, which sometimes seems to think that environmental sustainability is just an option.

 
  Landcom needs to continue its efforts to be a leader in environmental sustainability, and the government and the community need to support the Corporation, rather than send mixed messages in their planning and purchasing behaviour. In the past two years Landcom has certainly invested further effort in the environmentally responsible path, but it continues to face big challenges.
 
  BRENDAN CROTTY
  AUSTRALAND, MANAGING DIRECTOR
  When Australand started working with Landcom in New South Wales it was like a meeting of minds. We told them how we approach things in other states and they were very supportive. What we do fits almost perfectly with their philosophy on sustainability.

  DAVID INGREY
  LA PEROUSE ABORIGINAL LAND COUNCIL, SITE OFFICER
  The archaeological management plan Landcom put in place to ensure that significant indigenous sites were mapped and given due respect has helped protect our heritage at Prince Henry.
 
  Prince Henry in modern times is significant in that many of our community worked here and were patients for generations. Prior to that the coastline was in constant use and we’ve discovered five major walking tracks into the area. There’s evidence of ochre being recovered for body painting in Little Bay, as well as large shell middens, axe grinding grooves and engravings. Landcom has been great. They are easy to work with and there have been no problems.
