Central Coast Council will be undertaking surveillance and targeted fox control between October 2022 and February 2023 at the following locations:

• The Entrance North to Soldiers Beach (only at certain times on Council managed land)
• Saratoga Conservation Area (Saratoga)
• High priority reserves: The Scenic Road Bushland Reserve (Kincumber), Kincumba Mountain Regional Reserve (Kincumber-Green Point), Rumbalara Reserve (Gosford-Springfield), Katandra Reserve (Holgate), Ferntree Close Reserve (My Elliot-Wyoming-Lisarow) and Barwon Road Reserve (Wyoming).

Predation by foxes is a key threat to many native animals and this program aims to reduce the impact on our local biodiversity, including threatened species. 

Authorised access points to a location will be secured and/or signposted to stop public acess when operations are in progress. For your safety, the community are advised to not enter any area, or allow your pets to enter, when warning signs are in place. 

Pet owners are encouraged to keep their pets safe and prevent them from entering reserves. Dogs are prohibited in these reserves and if found enforcement action may ensure.
