Beach will only get worse before it gets official help

The section of beach between Ocean Beach and Umina that is in dire need of help because it is disappearing will only get worse before it gets any help from either our Council or the State Government.

Once they have finished their studies, they will have to do them again because the problem will be worse.

The Council states that they have long and short term strategies for the Esplanade but this is not where the erosion is occurring.

I think when the road starts to disappear the powers that be, who don't seem to want to do anything apart from develop designs and models, will have to do something.

We won't have to wait too long to get some hopefully concrete solutions to this problem as the next state election is in 2019 and Council election is 2020.
