The Port Macquarie Resident Action Network-organised meeting will take place at Port City Bowling Club from 5.30pm.

It is expected all the candidates – bar Peta Pinson – will be on deck.

Mrs Pinson declined the invitation, citing a previous unpleasant experience at a similar meeting.

That means Councillors Lisa Intemann, Rob Turner and Sharon Griffith along with Greens’ candidate Lauren Edwards will have their say before election day on July 29.

Coverage will start at 5.30pm.
