Road Subsidence Alert - Florence Terrace Subsidence has occurred on Florence Terrace, just past Eastern Wharf steps and poses potential danger to vehicular traffic and pedestrians.  The SIRFB, Community Vehicle drivers, contractors and residents who access their homes via this section of road have been advised. A resident has put a couple of milk crates and a white hessian bag on the roadway. Council has been advised and a request made for them to investigate the extent of the subsidence as soon as possible.
The Church Point Ferry Service is proud to announce that with your help we have removed 40 tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. To celebrate we will be giving away 40 spotted gum saplings to the first 40 passengers on national Tree day, Sunday the 31st of July. That is one tree for every tonne of carbon dioxide removed. Living in Spotted Gum Forest Scotland Island and the western foreshores of Pittwater are spotted gum forest, which is an endangered Ecological Community. In view of the small size of existing remnants, the Pittwater Spotted Gum Forest is likely to become extinct.
