(1) The Marine Facilities - Boating Management Strategy in the Rottnest Island Management Plan 2009-14 allows for a feasibility study for development of a marina on Rottnest Island for commercial vessels, but does not make the distinction between a large or small marina.
(2) (a) The scope and size of a marina has not been determined. If the development of a marina should proceed, all new facilities will be based on a feasibility study of financial, social and environmental sustainability and the Rottnest Island Authority's development approval process.
(b) Yes, as per development assessment process.
