Action sought on Esplanade trees

Umina residents have petitioned Gosford Council over the danger posed by several large trees on the Umina Beach reserve.

A petition, with five signatures, was received from residents of The Esplanade, Umina Beach, about the state of several large trees which overhang the cycle path and are located opposite 148 The Esplanade.

The petitioners stated they are concerned the trees pose a danger to public safety as they believe it is only a matter of time before serious damage or injury occurs caused by falling limbs or trees toppling.

The petitioners have requested that council officers inspect the trees.
