East Gosford hotel after feedback from the Regional Planning Panel “The plans have been amended to improve the external appearance of the lower terrace area and to provide a more active frontage to Adelaide St as requested,” an update on behalf of the applicant “The updated plans provide a more open presentation for the lower terrace area to Adelaide St and internally within the site including glazed folding doors and vertical sliding windows “A small balcony area facing Adelaide St is also proposed Updated social impact assessments and plans of management are in the pipeline The proposal involves demolition of the existing motel behind the pub and replacing it with a new three storey 60-room motel facing Brougham St the bottle shop renewed and a new two-level parking area constructed Public feedback to the proposed redevelopment at 41 Victoria St has ranged from excited approval to criticism that it is like an RSL club blokey venues where almost every room has multiple TV screens,” one submission says “Pubs do not need play areas and the proposed combination of a 60-room motel a bottle shop and family areas sounds more like an RSL-type of development which is not really in keeping with the village atmosphere of East Gosford.” Judging by the number of print ads in our local papers of late the Liberals seem to be outspending Labor three to one in the campaign to

and really make the most of the block,” Ms Donelan said Toby and Alex Donelan with daughter London,at their previous project “Some buyers came through who were considering doing their own projects and they had started to source what that would cost and quickly saw the amount of money that goes into a project like this “Construction costs are significant and these days the buyer wants everything that opens and shuts but they don’t always understand the budget and the huge amount of planning that is involved.” The Donelans work with a team of private investor partners who contribute either cash or released equity and share in the profits once each project is sold Each investor typically contributes between $50,000 and $300,000 with returns ranging from 15-20 per cent per annum The

those recovering from addictions The style is relaxed – discussing a different topic each night and being open in a safe and caring environment regardless of their beliefs and where they are in their faith journey,” said Darren “This is the authentic Salvation Army We don’t want to introduce traditions or get stuck in our ways.” Jesus is always the focus at Freedom Chapel Leanne said Freedom Chapel was a place where people could be authentic and vulnerable while focused on Jesus as the higher power in their lives and seeing how they can look after each other and how God wants our communities to be,” she said Area Officers Majors David and Michele Terracini Courts and Prisons Chaplain Major Chris Cohen and people from both the Tweed Heads and Gold Coast Temple Corps also lead some of the meetings “I am so grateful for this church,” said one attendee but also help me to give back to the best of my ability.” Freedom Chapel is just one of a range of Salvation Army expressions

to a fire that destroyed a garage and vehicles at Elanora Heights 02 June) multiple NSW Rural Fire Service (NSW RFS) and Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) crews were called to a property at Dendrobium Crescent First on scene and witnessing large amounts of smoke firefighters from FRNSW Narrabeen Station declared a second alarm fire and requested additional support With the incident location falling within the Rural Fire Service response zone Terrey Hills and Davidson also responded to the scene along with a commander from Northern Beaches Headquarters The area at Elanora Heights is semi-rural with large properties firefighters found the garage of a home well alight the nearest fire hydrant was a considerable distance from the seat of the fire Firefighters established a pump system using multiple vehicles to relay water from the hydrant to firefighters in breathing apparatus Fire protection was put in place to prevent any spread of the fire to the separate residence or the surrounding bushland The occupants of the property were home at the time of the fire and fortunately not injured during the incident A NSW Ambulance Inspector attended the scene to assess them for possible effects of smoke inhalation or shock Ausgrid also attended the incident to disconnect power from the home firefighters had brought the fire under control and were ensuring it had been fully extinguished The garage and vehicles inside were completely destroyed It is understood one of the vehicles burned was a classic Volkswagen Kombi van The discovery of possible asbestos in the remains resulted in contamination protocols being enacted with hot and warm zones established and only firefighters using breathing apparatus allowed in the building All firefighters were also then required to carefully decontaminate their gear upon moving away from the building An additional RFS crew equipped with breathing apparatus was called in from Beacon Hill to assist with salvage and overhaul operations Crews were complete at the incident scene shortly after 3.00pm A small hotspot flared up just before 4.45pm which was quickly extinguished by a crew of five from Ingleside Rural Fire Brigade The source of the fire remains under investigation with NSW Police and fire investigators attending the scene Initial inquiries have indicated the likely cause to have been a possible electrical fault with an appliance that was operating in the garage Mar 4, 2024 | , A climber has been rescued after falling from a cliff at Elanora Heights Just after 1.15pm yesterday afternoon (Sunday and Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) Narrabeen Station responded to a report of a climber injured after falling from a cliff near Bungoona Avenue It is understood a 22-year-old man had been climbing with friends on the escarpment between Deep Creek and Elanora Heights The man reportedly misjudged a section of the climb slipping and swinging back on his rope into the rock face He was helped down to a safe location by climbing companions who called Triple Zero (000) Four NSW Ambulance crews responded to the scene including NSW Ambulance Inspector Christian Holmes and two Special Operations Paramedics who are specially trained to conduct vertical rescues The Special Operations Paramedics made their way into the man’s location with specially trained vertical rescue firefighters from Narrabeen Station The FRNSW crew from Narrabeen had recently familiarised themselves with the area as a location that was popular with climbers They found the man’s position at the base of the cliff just after 2.00pm Paramedics used the gear they had carried in to stabilise the man’s injured leg and give him pain relief and a considerable distance from the nearest access point across flat terrain they devised a plan to lift the man back up the cliff face using a FRNSW ‘Arizona Vortex A-frame’ rope system (image above) and stokes litter (image below) With the assistance of other climbers who were in the vicinity the man was first carefully placed into the stokes litter and carried around 50m to where the rope system could be safely set up at the top of the cliff just after 4.00pm a team of firefighters from Narrabeen and Mona Vale Stations commenced the rope haul of the stretcher containing the well-secured man up the cliff face accompanied by one of the Special Operations Paramedics (image below) The man was then carried approximately 100m along a fire trail to a NSW Ambulance at Amaroo Avenue where he was given a further clinical assessment and offered more pain relief before being taken to Northern Beaches Hospital in a stable condition just after 4.45pm but we don't want to lose
