Sometime over the weekend of 7-8 October 2017, an unknown person has vandalised two walls within our PHRCA area. One of those walls is the Pacific Harbour sign at The Peninsula Park. These walls were only just refurbished at the end of 2016 and it is very disappointing to see this happen. The incident […]
A few PHRCA residents have been asking when the damage to the wall at Turnstone Close Park will be repaired. This wall didn’t turn out to have an easy fix as most of the stones had gone missing. Usually when they fall off they are found in the garden and are able to […]

To finalise the PHRCA mulch allocation before the end of the financial year, MBRC have mulched the easements on Osprey Island and Kakadu. Now that we are getting a little rain, the PHRCA will be continuing with infill planting and mulching over the coming months in all remaining areas.
After the entry gardens on the corner of Marina Blvd and Sylvan Beach Esplanade where accidentally flattened when the MBRC were trimming tree branches last month, they agreed to replant these gardens at no cost to the PHRCA. This will be followed by another round of infill planting by the PHRCA which will cover Marina […]
This week Seaside Park had a tidy up, which included tree trimming, some infill planting and a top up of mulch – and doesn’t it look great! Council are completing our final mulch allocation for the financial year. Stay tuned, it all starts again in July.
Luckily we had minimal damage from the strong winds after Cyclone Debbie, with only five trees and one Duck Crossing sign down throughout the area. These were reported to MBRC on the morning of Friday 31.3.17 and most were removed on the same day. Of course there was also plenty of small branches and debris which […]
On Wednesday 15th February 2017, what appeared to be a diesel film was reported on the surface of the water in the canal system. Notice was received from the Brisbane Water Police and they advised the matter had subsequently been referred to Maritime Safety Queensland (MSQ) to investigate and action. A timely reminder for all […]
The PHRCA have started to audit the gardens which were planted over the last eighteen month of the major planting project to see which species have failed and which have done well in the difficult conditions. This additional planting commenced on 8 December 2016 and covered Marina Boulevard between Sunderland Drive and North Point. […]
It has now been over a year since we commenced the Planting Project in conjunction with MBRC. Unfortunately we have had some areas where the plants have failed to grow. A lot of the reason appears to be foot traffic, such as pedestrians cutting the corners at the roundabouts instead of following […]
