Commenting on the plan, ward councillor Steve Tucker said that the project would be in two stages.

“The existing amenities block will be demolished and relocated to the other side of the car park.

A new children’s playground will be constructed closer to the picnic shed and all of the carpark and access roads will be sealed,” he said. “This will make the entire waterfront reserve more inviting and user friendly,” he added.

“Stage two of the makeover will see a rebuild of the boat ramp and construction of a new concrete pathway which will extend from Billy’s Beach viewing platform back to Caswell Reserve and across a bridge to the reserve in front of the existing houses,” he said.

Council is currently liaising with Tilligerry Lions Club in a joint venture to upgrade the park facilities adjacent to the recently constructed amenities block in Peace Pde. Tanilba Bay.
