19.01.2022 PREPARE FOR FLASH FLOODING AS MORE RAIN EXPECTED Motorists and business owners in low lying areas of the CBD are advised to be aware of the risk of flash floodi...ng overnight as the Wilsons River rises and Council close levee gates this evening. Carparks on the riverside of the levee have already been closed. ** EDIT ** The picture below shows one of our larger levee gates -the Upper Hensley gate - that will be closed if the river continues to rise. The BOM is forecasting heavy rain overnight and the Wilsons River is predicted to reach the minor flood level of 4.2m later tonight and may reach 5m tomorrow, Lismore City Council’s Local Emergency Management Officer Scott Turner said this afternoon. We will commence closing levee gates this evening and this means heavy rain falling directly in the Lismore basin could cause flash flooding in the CBD similar to what we experienced just before Christmas, he said. Motorists are advised not to park their vehicles in low-lying areas around Dawson Street and Uralba Street and CBD businesses affected by the pre-Christmas flash flood are advised to be ready to move equipment, vehicles and stock to higher ground. Residents are urged to monitor conditions and be prepared for potential flash flooding.

16.01.2022 UPGRADE OF HERITAGE PARK A HIT WITH THE COMMUNITY LISMORE Mayor Isaac Smith has officially re-opened the popular Heritage Park following a $500,000 upgrade to ...playground equipment, plus other minor works. I know the community has been eagerly waiting for Heritage Park to re-open and explore the great new facilities it has for families, he said. "The feedback we have received from families who visited the park last weekend has been overwhelmingly positive. I hope everyone enjoys the new fun features which includes a new water play area with squirters, misters and coconut palm soaker to keep the kids cool in the warmer months. We also have a new nature play area with boulders and timber features for children to climb on and new equipment in the Tiny Tots playground including a carousel, tree-tops tower, whirly dizzy, relocated tortoise seesaw and in-ground trampolines. This upgrade, jointly funded by the State Government and Council, will see families use it for many more years to come, and there is more that we want to do once grant funding becomes available. We are asking the community to let us know what you want. Cr Smith said signs have been erected at various locations around Heritage Park with QR codes that asks for suggestions about possible future works, such as does the community want shade sails over the Tiny Tots area. People can also go to yoursay.lismore.nsw.gov.au to tell us what else you would like at Heritage Park, he said. The Heritage Park upgrade was funded through a $250,000 grant from the NSW Stronger Country Communities Fund and $284,000 from Council raised via pocket park sales and flood insurance money.
