Re: Proposed boat ramp at North Arm Cove
In 2016 Royal Haskoning DHV was contracted by Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) with support from then Great Lakes Council to write a Boating Development plan for North Arm Cove. Development of a local boat ramp in North Arm Cove was the key component of this investigation.
The draft report and associated concept designs for two potential boat ramp locations were presented to the North Arm Cove community in late 2016. A large number of submissions were received from the community (as well as the onsite discussion held during a community drop-in session) regarding this proposal.
Following this consultation a final Boating Development Plan has been submitted to council. This Plan and associated Council report is scheduled to be included on the agenda for the Midcoast Council General Meeting on Wednesday 28 June 2017.
This meeting will be held at 2pm at the Gloucester Administration building. The business papers for this meeting will be available on Council's website at the following address:
http://www.midcoast.nsw.gov.au/Council/Council-Meetings
Papers are usually made available on this page at 12:00 the Friday before the Council meeting.
There is also information on this webpage if you would like to address Council at this meeting.
This letter is going to all stakeholders who submitted comments on the draft plan, or have previously registered an interest. If you know of somebody who is interested in this issue but did not submit any comments at the time, please pass on this information.
* As the Boating Development Plan document is quite large, I will organise for some hard-copies to be available at the North Arm Cove Community Centre prior to the Council meeting.
Yours faithfully
Drew Morris
Natural Assets Officer
