CITY of Coffs Harbour will write to Transport for NSW requesting “consideration of a community-led mural” on the Pacific Highway southern exit sound wall at Park Beach.

The motion, moved by councillor (Cr) Jonathan Cassell and seconded by Cr Sally Townley at Council’s 8 August meeting, was carried unanimously.

Cr Cassell said a community-led mural could draw attention to Coffs Harbour and its public art spaces.

“A mural at this spot isn’t new and Rotary have already had discussions about it with relevant stakeholders.

“I spoke with a senior Coffs Harbour Rotary Club member and a mural is something we all seem to agree would be a great outcome.

“I’m excited to see the beautification of Coffs Harbour gain the support of councillors and we all agree that Transport for NSW could be doing more to support the City’s appearance.

“This sound wall will be the first issue to push but I’d like to see our parks, gardens, roundabouts and town entranceways enhanced from Woolgoolga to Sawtell.”
