Lake Macquarie City Council has released the Draft Plan of Management for Rathmines Park. The Plan is open for consultation from 23 June to 7 August.
The Rathmines Park Plan of Management proposes to change some existing land categories within the park.
In accordance with the Local Government Act 1993, Council is required to host an independently-chaired public hearing to seek community feedback on the re-categorisation. Due to current COVID-19 restrictions this will be conducted online on 23 July.

Can you help support this important Catalina restoration project? Donations are what makes it possible. Rathmines Catalina Association is registered as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) Organisation. Donations of $2.00 or more in cash or products may be tax deductible. A DGR receipt will be provided for your taxation records. For more information contact info@rathmines-catalina.com Our volunteers raise funds in as many ways as we can - running tours of the RAAF base, the biennial Catalina Festival, and so on - and we have wonderful support from a number of local businesses and other organisations. We give our time freely, but restoring an old aircraft requires all sorts of parts, services and equipment! Please consider becoming a supporter and donating to this important local project of national historical significance. Our President Bill Anderson will be happy to discuss this with you. |  |
