If you have a strong opinion about the matter either way, it is important to attend to express your views.

Too often people cry out about something but when it comes to the crunch will fail to follow it up with action.

Similarly, if you support the notion of free camping in these areas it’s just as imperative you attend the meeting.

The issue will also be followed up at Wednesday’s Port Macquarie-Hastings Council meeting.

Hopefully a reasonable decision can be made to stop the bickering about what has become a controversial issue.

It is also hoped a blanket ban is not placed on the people who enjoy free camping either.
