Important consultation with stakeholders and the NSW Heritage<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->Office was undertaken as part of the consultancy<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->Based on our calculations, Rookwood is expected to run out of burial space within the next 30 years,<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->making it crucial and urgent to lay out a clear plan of management for its landscape and few burial<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->areas left.<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->“Where can efficiencies be found in land-use? How can we extend the life of the cemetery? What<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->should the cemetery look like when full? Should the public be invited within for activities other than<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->interring? How can Rookwood become the best of its kind, a benchmark for the industry? These are<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->some of the questions posed and answered during an 8-month process.<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->The result is a comprehensive report with more than 180 recommendations of practical, innovative<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->and challenging ideas.<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->2017-18 Update: Implementation has started with fence replacement, new
