The park is obviously still under threat if all these commerical and private interests get a piece of the pie, the area remaining not taken up by the boardwalk and other facilities, will then be deemed by Council as unprofitable etc.<BR/><BR/>Never fear, the residents of the Northern Beaches are keeping a very keen eye on what goes on here and we will be reporting any deviance or reduction of this public facility. Only recently, an application for the operation of helicotpers at a Palm Cove beside, right beside this Park, got trounced on by residents, with Council having to do a backflip and cover up as to how this application was even being considered on public land (again).<BR/><BR/>In June 2007, Council allocated $1 million dollars for the facelift option for the park ($200,000 for design work and $800,000 for facilities and improvements).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-70583784304015946442008-06-28T18:40:00.000+10:002008-06-28T18:40:00.000+10:00Not forgetting that the "Caravan Park" was going t...Not forgetting that the "Caravan Park" was going to be moved to the "car park", and the car park moved to the Caravan Park. This would mean that the campers would be on a reduced area, with no trees and the cars would have more space and trees to park under.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
