DEAR News Of The Area,

I CAN’T understand why you would want to change the name of Coffs Harbour City Council to the City of Coffs Harbour.

I have lived in Coffs Harbour for over 40 years and I have seen a lot of changes but changing the name Coffs Harbour City Council to City Of Coffs Harbour is bloody ridiculous.

I have never heard of such nonsense in all of my life before.

People that have visited Coffs Harbour over the years or live in Coffs for years have known the name Coffs Harbour City Council for a very long time.

The thing is it’s going to cost a lot of money to change the name, and the Council have already blown their budget on the building that is going up in Gordon Street and now you want to change the name?

It is going to be very confusing to people that the Coffs Harbour City Council is changing its name.

Why not put the money towards more important things, instead of changing the Coffs Harbour City Council name?

It is going to cost a lot of money in the long run.

Regards,
Rochelle DAVIES,
