- South End, The Oaks and Workman’s Beach Camp Ground toilets were closed earlier with camp ground closures.
Many of these amenities are located in or near areas which have already been closed down including: playgrounds, skate parks, pump tracks, outdoor fitness equipment and camping grounds.
The goal of these closures is to discourage non-essential gatherings, prevent vandalism or theft of Council property and to reduce workloads so Council staff can focus on delivering essential services to the community.
Residents are asked to please obey signage in place and do not enter any of these closed areas.
Council staff will not be undertaking routine safety inspections while these facilities are closed and therefore cannot guarantee the safety of residents who enter these areas.
Please call Council on 4970 0700 if further information is required.
