Presentation of Petitions

Clr White presented a petition containing  1,785 signatures which states: The Callala Beach Progress Association and the Callala Bay Community Association wish to urge Shoalhaven City Council to proceed to design and construct a shared pathway or boardwalk which would provide a much needed link between the two villages of Callala Beach and Callala Bay.

The proposed pathway would run alongside Emmett Street and Callala Beach Road (from Stott Crescent to Club Callala).

This pathway/boardwalk would greatly benefit both residents and visitors, pedestrians and cyclists, providing a safe connection between our two villages and safe access to the services provided at each.

With the proposed O’Halloran housing development, the new motel and surging tourist numbers, such a vital link between our two villages is urgently needed, especially considering increased traffic flow along a very narrow Callala Beach Road.
