Good to know where our rates are going........
Letter from council as follows:
Good afternoon Justine,
In response to your enquiry regarding track maintenance in Eureka Park where tracks through the redwoods and Greenwood Track are located, our contractors have outlined the following:
A leaf blower is used to
* Blow the debris out of the gutters to allow the water to drain correctly.
* Remove the debris and leaf litter off the track surface to allow the water to shed correctly and reduce the slipperiness/unevenness.
These methods of track maintenance are our standard operating procedures, and allow us to manage general water erosion wear and tear on our track surfaces
