Shade for Power Memorial Park
I AM very happy to let you know that works on installing the new shade sails at Power Memorial Park in Mudjimba are underway. Council staff have been on site trimming some trees to make way for the posts where the three new shade sails will attach to. We are hoping to have the new shade covers installed by the end of February/early March. I look forward to sharing the end result with you soon and our families!
Marathon changes
Residents in Pacific Paradise, Twin Waters and Mudjimba now have the chance to be part of a regional event featuring an exciting new single-lap course. The event encourages community participation in sport, while helping to grow the local economy.
Taking place on Sunday, August 3, the marathon will start and finish at Alexandra Headland and take runners along a predominantly flat, fast, coastal route through Pacific Paradise, Twin Waters and Mudjimba, crossing the Sunshine Motorway Bridge twice for panoramic water views. Council will continue to work closely with local businesses and residents to help prepare for this event in August because we recognise that it will be a new experience for many residents in the area.
Clean Up Australia Day
Please consider taking part in Clean Up Australia Day this Sunday, March 2. Whether you’d like to join an existing clean-up in your area or register your own, you can find out more on the Clean Up Australia Day website at www.cleanup.org.au.
New pathway
I’m pleased to share some great news for Pacific Paradise residents. Council will be constructing the connecting 130 metre section of pathway between Menzies Drive and Kowonga Street. I fought hard to obtain funding for this project because I know how many people will benefit from this pathway, including our school kids, parents and residents at the nearby lifestyle resorts. Construction will start on March 17 and be completed in two weeks, weather permitting.
