Council has resolved to commence the formal legislative processes to close a 20,635 m² portion of West Creek Road at Langhorne Creek with the intent it be sold to a neighbouring landowner and merged into their landholdings. The landowner will be required to enter into a Costs Agreement with Council prior to Council engaging a surveyor to prepare a preliminary plan for the road closure.
