Ms Hardy says the Norfolk pine that was removed had historical significance.

Cr Craigo could you please clarify - Legally speaking should the production company have submitted an application (as the rest of us have to) to remove the tree? If yes then did they? If No why not?

Why not concentrate on restoring the Point to how it was before the stuffing around with the film set.

The access for both cars, pedestrians, park users and casual visitors were pretty good.

Decent maintenance is mainly what is required.

Thoughts about carousels seems like someone is trying to escape obligations to put the point back to where it was.

I read the film company's sign which is still at the park which says that it will restore the park/point to its previous condition.

(How to put the Norfolk pine back will be a bit of a challenge), that is an obligation which must be followed through.

The Point is one of the most outstanding features of Cleveland, treat it with care for the future.

Hi jumpy, I've previously explained this one.

'Historical significance' is not a heritage listing.

Once again, if you would like to call me on 3829 8607 I'd be happy to lead you through the intricacies...

In response to Margaret Hardy: “The Narnia debacle should not have been allowed but the minimum requirements should have been total restoration of the point to its original condition, including the replacement of the Norfolk Pine that has historical significance and the removal of the concrete eyesore built into the bay.”

I Cannot believe you are criticizing them!

Shame on you is all I can say.

The Narnia cast and crew were the best thing that ever happened to us!

Instead of blaming them for something that isn't even their fault, you should be applauding them for putting Cleveland Point on the map and known to Hollywood!

I like the look of option 1, with a ring road and speed bumps so that all traffic can still move through and have a view of the beautiful bay, but be slowed down by the speed bumps to create a safer area for pedestrians.

Cr Craigo, you haven't answered my direct question with reference to this matter.

Again Should the production have been required to submit an application to remove the tree?

Did they? If not why not?

Just get them to restore the site to its original condition which includes getting rid of the large concrete platform. This should have been a condition of approval. In terms of any proposed changes - simplicity is the key. No carousels its not [...] Disneyland.

No Bert, a carousel is needed so that councillors can use it during their play time. Children will have to wait their turn. Shame, shame, shame.

We definitely want Cleveland Point to remain the way it was before the filming so we choose Option 1.

The area really does need sprucing up that's for sure and I guess we will all miss that Norfolk Pine.

Like a lot of other people we go to the Point almost daily, so our opinion ought to count for something.

We are decidedly against the idea of putting speed bumps on the ring road - that really would stuff things up.

We have not, so far, heard of the Point being used as a racetrack.

Leave the point as it was - just increase the green area behind and make the restaurant provide its own carparks instead of rich people taking public spaces.

It is discriminatory to remove car spaces from the waters' edge -we have a family member with a severe disability and this is the only place we can drive to the waters edge-often he is too sick to walk even a few steps or get out of the car.

On many extremely hot summer nights this is the only place that lifts his spirits.

Think about people who can't afford air-conditioning and expensive restaurants and resort holidays - sitting on the waters' edge is all we have- and its value as a healing tool should not be underestimated.
