$750,000 to remove the Boardwalk.

COW may have already overspent on an undesirable project.

I say get on with the Yanchep Foreshore Management Plan that has been talked about and promised for years (with funds even allocated in COW Budgets) at Yanchep Lagoon Beach.

Improve the car parks, fill in the pot holes, replace or repair the delapitated retaining walls and improve the substandard disgusting toilet facilities before you waste any money removing the Boardwalk.

There are far more ratepayers in the City of Wanneroo than 80 protestors.

I have trouble seeing 80 protesters in the photos.

Spend the money upgrading the Lagoon where we all can enjoy some benefit for our rate payments.

No thought has gone into the aesthetics for the area.

A great lump of shiny steel over natural bush against a backdrop of pristine ocean.

What where the City of Wanneroo thinking?

Good to see our North side councilors at the protest, but begs the question.

Where were they when the plans were submitted?

Should they not have had there finger on the pulse then and involved the community.

To Little to Late.

Think about it, $525,000 to supply the materials prefabricate and erect them.

It is only a fraction of that to unbolt it and truck it away - no more than $50,000.

It's done more damage than that to the locals house values - take it away I say!

It looks ridiculous, not to mention the amount of money out laid for this ugly structure!!

Money should finally be spent on the Lagoon foreshore.

But I am getting concerned with all the development promised.

How many protests we are facing when this boardwalk is already raising so much anger.

I think the City of Wanneroo should be congratulated on a job well done.

If you don't want it, send it to Two Rocks.

We'll have it.

Ungrateful Yanchepites

Who thought of putting the boardwalk so high as to spoil the view from the houses on the front row?

It has got to go.

Worst hit will be ocean view homes which have had their vistas decimated by this shiny, snake-like, monstrosity that sticks out like male dogs' testicles, and that in no way blends in with the local nature.

I believe that this monetary damage may be redeemable through a civil law suit against COW.

I say lets get legal advice for a possible joint action claim.

Incidently, if you, injured yourself because of a pot hole accident, I believe that you could successfully sue COW for damages, which would have to include a payment for pain and suffering.

All you would need is a corroborating witness and a decent lawyer.

You could also suit for property damage if your car suffered damage as a result of driving into a pot hole.

Clearly, COW would be found negligent, particularly as people have complained about the pot holes in the lagoon car park which are an accident waiting to happen.
