$90 000 to conduct a study
$90 000 to conduct a study on ways to improve the ramp in Rockingham,$45 000 for another one at Geographe far out cant they ask a few locals.No wonder there is never enough cash around,thanks for posting but it pisses me off when i read of the waste while the ramp i use in Bunno has 1 light 2 launch bays with a finger jetty,no dunnies and is meant to be the main city ramp.They spent over half a million on the stirling st ramp that has about 20 car/boat parks ggrrr

$90k for the Donald drive
$90k for the Donald drive ramp!? there is no facilities or jetty there, its just a beach launch!
To conduct a study on ways of improving the ramp - $90k to do a study!?!?! someones mate is laughing all the way to the bank with that backhander. We are working in the wrong industry boys and girls - conducting "studies" is where the money is!
What a load of bullshit!

$466480 for studies, i am
$466480 for studies, i am pretty sure all they need to do is ask the locals and would get more achieved and useful facilities, rather than listening to some pencil pusher that has probably never used and will never use one of these facilities themselves. And seriously 1mil to " Lily Creek Lagoon ramp, jetty & lighting To replace the existing ramp and construct two holding jetties". i know alot goes into it, and they probably need it done, but seriously??? they are taking the micky now aren't they??? $85500 upgrade to fishmarket reserve??? they better be putting in a floating dock like at Kattaning st.
to fish or not to fish...as if there was an option.
