Among the northern Central Coast towns in which the council is considering alcohol-free zones are Budgewoi, Chain Valley Bay, Doyalson, Gwandalan, Kingfisher Shores, Kulnura, Lake Haven, Lake Munmorah, Mannering Park, Norah Head, San Remo, Summerland Point, and Toukley.
“Alcohol-free zones aim to reduce alcohol-related crime, violence and anti-social behaviour in identified locations in order to help create a safer environment for the whole community,” a spokesperson for council said.
“An alcohol-free zone relates to public roads, car parks and footpaths, however, these zones will not restrict outdoor dining licences where council approval has been granted.”
The zones will be in place for four years and council is currently seeking community feedback on the zones.
A complete list of the specific locations, as well as a collection of maps for proposed alcohol-free zones is available to view at yourvoiceourcoast.com
