Dungog Residents Up In Arms Over Closure Of Local Caravan Park

BY IAN CROUCH

Dungog residents are worried about the impact on tourism from the closure of a local caravan park.

Council decided to shut down the Williams River Park at Clarence Town last week due to safety and compliance issues.

A meeting of stakeholders is being held this week to discuss the park's closure.

Around a hundred residents gathered for a protest meeting yesterday, describing the move a knee-jerk reaction.

The decision to close the caravan park comes despite $93,000 in state funding being provided to fix the problems.
