More than 50 residents attended a recent forum at Umina Beach with questions covering healthcare, aged care, the environment, and local infrastructure needs.
The forum was hosted by Federal Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid and State Member for Gosford Liesl Tesch, with residents encouraged to ask questions on any topic.
The forums have been a hallmark of Reid’s tenure and will continue into his second term.
“Throughout my first term, I made it a priority to organise forums across every part of the electorate to give our community the opportunity to meet with me and raise matters that are important to them,” he said.
“I will continue to host regular community forums and include representatives from the NSW Government, as well as from Central Coast Council.
“These forums are an excellent platform to raise ideas, seek assistance with matters, or simply to meet your local representatives.
“Our forum at Umina Beach was another success with over 50 residents attending.
“I would like to thank the community who came along, Liesl Tesch and Councillor Trent McWaide, who was able to assist.”
The Ask Us Anything Community Forum was held on Monday, August 11, at the Ocean Beach Surf Life Saving Club.

how come the labor councillors weren’t invited?
I found it rather odd the Federal member Gordon Reid invited a liberal councillor and not a Labor councillor.
Weird the liberal councilor (who does not respond to emails) was there & not Labor. Rumblings in the leftie ranks?
