Council has engaged a Coastal Engineer to investigate emergency and medium‑term foreshore protection options. This work began in October 2025 and included a re‑survey of the channel floor.

A draft report outlining short‑term options has been workshopped with NSW State Government agencies. A report identifying the preferred approach to emergency protection is currently under review by Council and will be finalised soon.

For areas identified as Council’s responsibility, the report will support:

• planning, design and required approvals
• applications for funding to deliver the works
• implementation of the works

For works identified as the responsibility of other agencies, Council will advocate on behalf of the community to progress the recommended actions.

Council will keep the community informed about the outcomes of this advocacy through the project webpage and at future Let’s Talk Windang events.
