Off-street parking investigated

Gosford Council is expected to release a survey in June about off-street parking at the Bays Community Hall.

Bays Community Group president Mr Bob Puffett met with Council at the Bays Community Hall on Tuesday, April 17 to discuss the provision of off-street parking.

Council's manager of infrastructure and planning Mr Ed Sukesh said Council's survey and design resources were limited and were focussed on approved capital works projects.

However, Council did examine design options and costs for parking in the road reserve or access for parking on site or a combination.

Mr Sukesh said, following the survey, design options would be investigated.

Mr Puffett said he understood the project may take some time but he was "eagerly awaiting Council's advice with concept designs and costing".

"Off street parking for our hall would be a godsend for those using the hall," he said,
