Questions about Pearl Beach Dr

Questions about Pearl Beach Dr were raised by councillors at Gosford Council's meeting of July 24.

Both Cr Vicki Scott and Cr Terri Latella asked council's Director of City Services Mr Stephen Glenn about the road.

Cr Scott asked the director if a consultants report on Pearl Beach Dr could be made available to councillors and the public.

Cr Scott also asked what action was being taken to secure funding to act on recommendations from the report.

Mr Glenn said the report would be with council within the week, at which point staff would develop a program to implement the works.

Mr Glenn also said that there was a "promise to go back to the community".

Cr Latella asked if a professional assessment of the stability of the mountain between the hairpin bend on Pearl Beach Dr including the area above Old Cliff Rd could be obtained.

Mr Glenn said that one had been obtained at the beginning of July when council undertook a major amount of work in the area.

Mr Glenn said this had been the subject of a consultant's report that would be available to council within a "couple of weeks".
