Public Safety and Community Advisories

Council reminds all road users to remain vigilant during dawn and dusk periods to reduce the risk of wildlife collisions. Recent data suggests increased animal activity near coastal and hinterland corridors this week.

Additionally, Council crews continue to monitor park conditions following recent seasonal growth. High-profile district parks are being prioritized in the current weekly mowing cycle to ensure facilities remain fit for community use. For further inquiries regarding local maintenance, residents may contact the Council via the standard online service request forms.
