Funding requested for foreshore path

A public meeting has been told that funding has been requested for a $300,000 foreshore path between Wagstaffe and the beach.

Gosford Council's recreation manager Mr Peter Hickman told a meeting in October that his department had made an application for the funding from the council.

Mr Hickman said a survey taken during the year indicated a need for a safe pathway from the beach to Wagstaffe.

It was suggested that it be suitable for young and old, and it also be wheelchair-friendly and safe for children.

A working group for the pathway was formed with members including Malcolm McCall, Jason Hogan, Paul Robinson, Ravi Sharma, Peer Dalland, Margi McFadyen, Karen Burke, Richard Harper and a representative from several local community groups.
