Seeding has been completed opposite Percy St.
George Woods Reserve. Due to increased use including electric bikes and scooters there are goat tracks everywhere. Needs to have something done or all the money, time and effort to rehabilitate this area will be wasted. Maybe a new path along Governor road heading towards the planned swimming complex would alleviate the problem.
Nina, Travis and Rosemary to present their concerns at the Environment & Open Spaces meeting.
