Decisions
Alstonville footpath funding reallocated

This changes which Alstonville footpath projects are prioritised for funding.
Car park upgrade priorities confirmed
Council confirmed priorities and possible funding sources for sealed car park upgrades, including Pop Denison Car Park in Ballina, Alstonville Tennis Centre/Lumley Park/Park Avenue, and listed Regatta Avenue, Keith Hall Boat Ramp, Chickiba Drive Sports Fields and Bicentennial Park for future capital works inventory with no current funding source.
This indicates which car parking upgrades may proceed first and which sites remain unfunded.
Further work approved on community infrastructure projects
Council requested a report on allocating forecast Community Dividends for 2027/28 to 2029/30 that includes the Cumbalum Community Circle to shovel-ready stage, and approved $10,000 from the Property Development Reserve to investigate a Recovery Centre/Hydrotherapy Pool at the Alstonville and Ballina Aquatic Centres. A separate motion to fund roof replacement for the Ballina Players Shed was recorded as absent and did not proceed.
This may shape future spending on major community projects and aquatic health facilities.
