Weekly message from the Mayor
Creating a Better Collaroy
Collaroy Beach is pretty hard to beat but Pittwater Road could definitely do with some improvements! To that end, your Council has just signed off on a million dollar contract to revamp the Collaroy streetscape.
The improvements will include new footpaths, new paving, seats, bins and bike racks.
The area will not only look great but businesses will enjoy better access and there will be improved conditions for pedestrians.
If you like what we've done at Dee Why, just wait until you see Collaroy. The work should be a great boost for one of our favourite places in the world.
By the way, we are using the information gathered last year about your visions and priorities for Collaroy, in the preparation of a masterplan for the Collaroy Beach Reserve.
There is still quite a bit more work to be done, but we hope to be able to publicly exhibit this plan by June.
Sargood Rehabilitation Centre
Collaroy already possess many great facilities for the disabled and another one is about to be built.
Sargood is billed as an innovative, world class facility that is being created to support people with traumatic spinal cord injury. The first sod will be turned on the $15 million development next Friday.
The building of Sargood, in conjunction with the upgrade works to be undertaken by Council, will help make Collaroy a model of access for people with disabilities which can be promoted all around the world.
Water Wonderland
Don't forget our next great event at Dee Why – Warringah's Water Wonderland. You don't have to get wet to find out about all our lagoons, rockpools and ocean. Ranger Stacey will be there, delivering our first Hilltop to Headland talk of the year and there'll be lots of great free activities for the kids as well.
Have a great weekend.
