Shoalhaven City Council is working with the NSW Government’s Nowra Riverfront Advisory Taskforce on an activation plan for the Nowra Riverfront to define the future direction for development of the area and to ensure the existing qualities are preserved and strengthened in the process.
To do this in the best way possible, feedback is being sought from interested parties and the broader community to make sure that all perspectives are considered moving forward.
Your responses to the online survey questions below will be used to help inform the creation of the activation plan.
Please provide your feedback by Friday 31 March 2023.
