If there is to be mergers, the only logical choice is One Northern Beaches Council. The Greater Pittwater/Greater Manly option weakens community and doesn't have the same financial benefits. It's bad for those who want to keep smaller councils, and bad for those in Warringah who would be victims of self-serving politics.

Two independent reports have recommended one Northern Beaches council area. This seems reasonable to me as this is a natural geographical region and it would meet all the government's other requirements re size.etc.

The government's proposal for Greater Manly and Greater Pittwater councils is politically driven. Warringah should not be split into two regions

The Northern Beaches is a geographical region and would be suitable for one council area

I believe that we should have one Northern Beaches Council to provide a more cohesive and efficient service to the area. Linking Warringah and Manly with Mosman will not provide this service to our Community.

Proposal is not couched in any other way but to have everyone agree with an ill-conceived division of a large working and now-successful Council in favour of two smaller boutique Councils requiring higher rates to support their services. Let's have a single Northern Beaches Council instead of three.

As a State we should save money in economy of scale.

As a community we will be better served by our Council and will all maintain a sense of belonging to our beautiful peninsula.

Please do not split Warringah. It is an award winning Council with multiple communities of interests. Catchment areas need to stay intact for all our lagoons and the environment. Sporting fields need to be managed by one Council. Garbage - all going to Kimbriki should be under one contractor. Transport plans should be reviewed for the whole Northern Beaches. Housing and development should be reviewed for the whole Northern Beaches. Special interests of Pittwater and Manly will ignore Warringah residents going forward - why are we paying for their debts? Childcare, Youth and Community Services are much better in Warringah - don't bust them up. The whole restructure will be an expensive program for KPMG to make money and our local people to miss out. Don't waste our tax on this stupid proposal.

Amalgamation is not a bad thing. Poorly constructed and designed amalgamation is. The proposed amalgamations and splits do not pass the common sense test and are therefore poor for the community that they should serve. If we're going to make changes, let's have one Northern Beaches council, otherwise leave things as they are.

I strongly disagree at the proposed action regarding council amalgamation on the northern beaches especially the splitting of Warringah Council. One northern beaches council is the only way to go as recommended by IPAM. All I can say is the outcome provided is to fuel individual political and party interest. How short sighted and self serving. Pitiful.

Mr Chris Ward [Signature #110]

Thu, 21 Jan 2016 10:42:32 UTC

Mr Chris Ward

Local Government reform is inevitable, and the IPART report recommending the combining of Pittwater, Warringah and Manly Council to form one northern beaches council not only makes sense, but would be the most efficient and cost effective solution.

For the current Government to move against the IPART recommendation, which was the only independent organisation focussing on the benefits to rate payers, is so blatantly obvious as purely a political decision to cater for a small minority, not the majority.

Additionally, what sense is there in splitting a Council, who last year was voted the best Council in NSW, into two smaller councils, neither of which meet the Government's own Fit for the Future criteria?

I strongly oppose splitting Warringah Council. This is a huge mistake, one that will be very costly in the short term to the Government re voters, but will have cost implications to rate payers for many, many years to come.

The current NSW Government, for the benefit of all rate payers, should put party politics aside, review this ridiculous decision, and get back into real reform. Our area, and indeed the State, needs it.

2. I meeting with delegate in mid-January. This gives no chance for the community to assess what this all means
3. The IPART savings are dubious & the govt's decision to split Warringah contradicts Dr Sansom's 4-year review along with the 3 affected councils. ALL AGREE - SPLITTING WARRINGAH PROVIDES NO BENEFIT

A more comprehensive review / community engagement program is essential & should be something to take to next election
