Discover What's Being Delivered Through the Sustainability Levy

Each year, the Sustainability Levy funds a diverse range of projects that help deliver Lane Cove Council's Sustainability Action Plan.

In 2026/27, more than 40 projects will receive funding, with projects ranging from habitat creation using recycled tree logs in urban spaces to supporting Lane Cove's partnership with the Fringe Festival.

These initiatives are helping create a more sustainable, resilient and liveable Lane Cove for everyone. Read more about the 2026/27 Sustainability Levy projects via the button below.

Contribute to Sydney Rewilding Initiative

Lane Cove Council is proud to support the Sydney Rewilding Initiative, which is working to return native bush rats or ‘Boguls’ to urban reserves across northern Sydney.

Ahead of future urban rewilding projects, researchers from the University of Sydney want to hear from you about local wildlife, green spaces and what rewilding means for your community.

Your voice will ensure local perspectives, concerns and ideas are reflected in future initiatives.
