The Master Plan in the document library was adopted in 2014. The playground has now been upgraded and Council has recently received funding from the Stronger Country Communities Fund for the coastal walkway.
Following the feedback at the Community Catch-up we want to hear more thoughts on this plan.
- Is the parking right?
- Is the layout right or can things be improved?
- Is there a role for community groups in helping to bring other parts of the Master Plan to life, in the same way the playground was delivered?
