| Cottage Point Plan of Management |
Cottage Point Community Association (CPCA), with overwhelming support from its resident members, has now adopted the Plan of Management (PoM) for Cottage Point to protect our environment and highlight the significance of our water based community which is situated wholly within the Ku-ringgai Chase National Park. We have had discussions with all the groups in our community, including Ku-ring-gai Motor Yacht Club, NSW Rural Fire Service, local business and residents for input into the PoM. The PoM for Cottage Point is also in response to Warringah Council Strategic Plan and the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS now known as Department of Environment and Conservation but referred to as NPWS throughout this document), proposed new licences for
