Residents' association meets

 

The newly-formed Peninsula Residents Association Inc has been formally incorporated and is meeting on Saturday, November 19, at 2pm at the Ettalong Progress Hall.

The association, formed to represent the interests of Peninsula residents, has made a submission about the Peninsula Urban Directions Strategy to the Gosford Council Strategy Policy Workshop to be held on Tuesday, November 15.

The workshop will be looking at planning processes, development of Peninsula town centres, consultation process for the strategy, population increases and other issues.

The association is recommending council adopt "the Noosa model" of community consultation and low-rise, well-designed town centres, said secretary Ms Sheelagh Noonan.

"This model has been proven to be very successful economically, socially and environmentally and benefits the community and tourism," Ms Noonan said.

All members of the Peninsula who support the association's objectives are welcome, she said.

For more information, contact Sheelagh Noonan on 0419 609 942.
