I am very sorry for the late notice on this. 

The petition is being tabled at the Council meeting at 1pm tomorrow. 

The Agenda states that Council officers are recommending Council to:

  1. Receive the petition, Children’s Bike Track at Cape Woolamai
    Foreshore and resolve to deal with matter at this Council Meeting.
  2.  Preserve the natural amenity and habitat values of the foreshore
    conservation reserve by proceeding with works to restrict access and
    restore native vegetation
    3. Advise the head petitioner of Council’s decision.

Number 2 sounds like they are going to go ahead with fencing off and  revegetating the site, effectively ignoring our petition, which is very disappointing. 

If you know any Councillors, please email or call them before the meeting to ask them not to vote for recommendation 2!
