We’re expecting beautiful weather just in time for Easter. We’ll have extra Council crews out and about over the long weekend to service our foreshore areas with additional waste collection and toilet cleaning.
As always, the beaches and pools will be popular for locals and visitors. We’re asking everyone to have fun but stay safe when in the water, follow the directions of lifeguards and lifesavers and swim between the flags.
We want everyone to stay safe, enjoy the break and plan ahead.
