My name is Martina Pattinson, and I work for the local health

service on healthy lifestyle programs.

I am putting an application in for the Healthy Towns Challenge for

Coraki for 2018. The Healthy Towns Challenge

aims to improve healthy eating and physical activity. Each year,

five rural towns in NSW are selected to be part of the

challenge and receive $15,000 towards resources and activities.

The Healthy Towns Challenge will run from end of January to

early August 2018.

If Coraki is successful, a local committee will manage activities

and buy equipment and other resources, with my support.

I am looking for ideas (for healthy eating and physical

activity) – what would you like to see happening in Coraki? This could include special activities or

classes, sports or games equipment, improving outdoor

spaces, and many others. I am also looking for locals who

would like to be on the committee.

Please contact me if you would like to make suggestions or be part of the committee, either

on 6620 7668 or email martina.pattinson@ncahs.healt

h.nsw.gov.au. Martina.

Interesting reading from the webpage: www.olg.nsw.gov.au

NSW Office of Local Government; Nuisance dogs and cats.

Under the Companion Animals Act 1998 a dog is a nuisance dog if it:

• Consistently roams; or • makes persistent, excessive noise; or

• repeatedly defecates on private property other than the property on which it is

ordinarily kept; or • repeatedly runs at or chases a person,

animal (other than vermin or in the course of droving, tending, working or protecting

livestock) or vehicle; or • endangers the health of a person or

animal (other than vermin or in the course of droving, tending, working or protecting

livestock); or • repeatedly causes substantial damage to anything outside the property on which it is

ordinarily kept.

Under the Companion Animals Act 1998 a cat is a nuisance cat if it:

• makes persistent, excessive noise that reasonably interferes with the peace,

comfort or convenience of any person in any other premises; or

• repeatedly damages anything outside the property on which it is ordinarily kept.

If you have a complaint about a nuisance animal, you should talk to the

owner and try to find a mutually acceptable solution.

If this proves unsuccessful or you are not comfortable with this approach,

contact your local council.

There are also links on this webpage for more information in regards to;

•Barking dogs.•Dogs that are straying, damaging property, chasing people or other animals, endangering the health of people or other animals. •What to do if your dog is

causing a nuisance (including excessive barking). •Nuisance cats.•What to do if

your cat is causing a nuisance.

Your local council will have an established procedure for investigating, and taking

action against nuisance cats and dogs and can give you further information and

guidance. RVC –Ph: 66600300.
