- increased home insurance
Insurance issue revealed by The Daily News and a Tweed Shire Councillor in 2013.
This insurance is based on the Tweed/Byron Creek Flood Studies
Byron Shire Council Study; actually for 2050-2100 (Research JS)
What of the present?
Orana Road: Photos showing the council drain with overgrown plants/trees/shrubs on the south side of Orana Road; flows under the road to the clean golf course drain/waterway/lake system.
