There will be a public part to the meeting, due to start at 7pm. Fellow Wauchopians and residents of nearby suburbs are invited to attend, and voice their concerns to the committee, for presentation to the council.
They will discuss the current CBD upgrade and the proposed Hastings Sporting Complex and any other issues the public may raise. The Wauchope Area Committee was set up on March 7.
"It was a lively, but good-humoured meeting, during which much progress was made," said committee member Niels Heffernan.
Issues discussed included:
- dead trees and stumps of trees in Bain Park
- the condition and continuity of a footpath from Wauchope CBD to Timbertown Shopping Precinct
- the apparent increase in numbers of used needles in the town's parks
The committee says many Wauchopians agree that the 'west of the donut' population seems to have missed out on decision-making, and often have different needs from those in Port Macquarie. If you want to join the committee or air your views about our town, come along on Thursday.
