Central Coast - Community Survey

Gosford and Wyong Councils were merged in May, 2016 to form Central Coast Council.

In May 2023, Central Coast Council will have been under Administration for 4 of the past 7 years. The State government has said that there will not be an election until September 2024 - when they could call an election at any time.

1.Should Central Coast Council have an election in 2023?
The failure of Council mergers is clear with the 20 amalgamated Councils around NSW losing $1.03 billion in 3 years and residents facing increased rates, cuts in services, a loss of Council staff and the sell off of community assets. 

Cootamunda Gundagai Council is demerging - and other Councils are trying - including Inner West Council, Canterbury Bankstown Council and Snowy RIvers Council.

If Central Coast Council de-merged before 2026, then the NSW government would cover any cost.

2.Should Central Coast Council de-merge into Gosford and Wyong Councils (with shared services)?
If you support a de-merger, then it is important to complete a petition.
