Former Davistown Progress Association President Jenny McCulla has been announced as a recipient of the New South Wales Community Service Award for her years of service to the Davistown Progress Association.
McCulla joined the association in 2014, becoming President in 2015.
Over the years, she has secured business sponsors, coordinated art and craft days and markets and secured tens of thousands of dollars in grant funding for Davistown.
“Jenny McCulla is a cornerstone of the Davistown community – she is a trailblazer and a doer, and that is why this award is so deserved,” Member for Terrigal Adam Crouch said.
“I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Jenny throughout the years and her passion for achieving better outcomes and improving community assets for the people of Davistown is second to none.”
McCulla, along with the Save Pippi Point Dog Park committee, was also successful in securing a favourable outcome for users following their advocacy with the then Administrator of Central Coast Council, Rik Hart.
“I am extremely happy to have been a recipient of such a prestigious award,” McCulla said.
“I am still enjoying working on community projects, currently on the use of the Davistown Wetlands funds.
“Hopefully, Council will also support the funds being used on wetlands in Davistown, which was the original purpose of the Davistown Wetlands Acquisition Fund.
“Many of the local infrastructure projects funds which include drink fountains, road seals and the new wastewater pod system upgrades are with big thanks to the Davistown Progress Association teams I have worked closely with.”
In addition to McCulla’s achievements for Davistown, she also made significant contributions to the now Hills Shire Council as a councillor and Deputy Mayor.
As the first elected female to the Baulkham Hills Shire Council, she played an important role on the Council’s Planning and Development Committee, with a focus on maintain green space and planning for future developments like Norwest Business Park.
