Have your say on local estuaries

MOONEE Creek, Coffs Creek, Boambee/Newports Creek, Jordans Creek and Pine Bush Creek Estuaries are significant coastal features and the City of Coffs Harbour is now seeking local input to help develop specific measures aimed at preserving and enhancing these waterways.

The City is preparing a Draft Central Coffs Harbour Estuaries Coastal Management Program and is currently in the process of looking at actions to help tackle bank erosion, habitat degradation, water quality, catchment and sediment inflows, as well as improving recreational opportunities.

There are several ways that people can take a look, get involved and provide their input and opinion on the preliminary options:
● By completing an online survey on the City of Coffs Harbour Have Your Say website. The survey will be open from 21 August to 17 September 2023. Visit https://haveyoursay.coffsharbour.nsw.gov.au/central_coffs_estuaries-cmp.
● Temporary signs at key locations in and around the Central Coffs estuaries will also promote the survey and provide a QR code link to the survey from mobile devices.
● By attending a community drop-in session on 29 August 2023 any time between 3pm-7pm at the Cavanbah Centre, 190 Harbour Drive, Coffs Harbour.

All community feedback will be used to help prioritise and rank the most effective, viable, and supported options from the list.

The results will help inform the actions to be included in the final Draft Coastal Management Program (CMP).
