Council recently asked the community where they would like to see benches and picnic tables installed across our region. Interested residents and visitors used the Your Say site and placed a pin where they would like to see these facilities installed.

Cassowary Coast Mayor Mark Nolan said that 48 contributions were made for locations across our region.

“I would like to acknowledge and thank all contributors for the time taken to provide feedback on this matter. The feedback highlighted the locations that matter to our residents and visitors, and will ensure future facilities are in or near these key locations. Council is currently developing its Open Space Strategy and suggestions for additional furniture in Council managed Parks and Open Space will be assessed in conjunction with that process.”

Suggested locations across the Cassowary Coast:

  • Bingil Bay- Two suggestions.
  • Coconuts- Two suggestions.
  • East Innisfail- Six suggestions.
  • Etty Bay- One suggestion.
  • Flying Fish Point- One suggestion.
  • South Mission Beach- Five suggestions.
  • Mission Beach- Eight suggestions.
  • Wongaling Beach- 24 suggestions.
