Peninsula resident groups meet
Resident groups from the Peninsula have met to discuss ways to strengthen the community's voice.
Representatives from the Peninsula Residents Association, Pearl Beach Progress Association, Umina Community Group and The Bays Community Association met on Thursday, May 18, to discuss opportunities for future collaboration.
"Topics discussed included protecting and enhancing the Peninsula's unique character and the quality of life in our community, and how to reawaken community engagement," said Peninsula Residents' Association secretary Ms Jen Wilder.
"Points of interest and concern included non-complying development and the need for integrity in planning, protection of the environment including preserving and increasing urban canopy cover, and how best to work effectively with Central Coast Council."
She said the groups had agreed to share experiences and concerns, to consider making joint submissions, and to share skills and resources.
Future meetings of representatives of the groups were planned.
