Council Finalizes Charge Scheme for Asbury St. West

At its meeting on Tuesday, Council received a report with final costings and moved to finalise the Special Charge Scheme 364 for the completed road construction in Asbury Street West, Ocean Grove.

The newly sealed road has significantly improved access and amenity for local residents, addressing long-standing issues with dust, mud, and stormwater runoff.

Property owners along Asbury Street West were invited to provide feedback on the proposed upgrade through a community survey conducted from April to May 2023. The majority of respondents supported sealing the unsealed section of road, including the installation of kerb and channel, under a Special Charge Scheme.

The upgrade benefits seven properties located between numbers 14 and 20 Asbury Street West.

By working together with residents, we're delivering practical improvements that respond directly to the needs of the Ocean Grove community.

This upgrade not only improves safety but also helps strengthen community connections.
