Residents told that name stays

Residents have been told that the name of the Peninsula Leisure Centre will stay as it is.

Petitioners had sent council a letter with 251 signatures in May asking for the words "War Memorial" to be included.

Gosford Council has sent a letter to petitioners which said that the naming of the centre had been the subject of considerable deliberation and it was decided that the name of the facility should be the Peninsula Leisure Centre.

The report stated that it was also agreed that a special memorial wall would be erected at the main southern entry to the centre on which the foundation and opening plaques of the old pool would be mounted.
