The City Council maintains life buoys along the beaches and many waterways that cross the city.
These life buoys are placed in these locations so that in the event of a mishap life can be protected.
Each year a substantial number of these have to be replaced, mostly due to tampering or meaningless interfering by the public. It would be a pity if life were endangered by such unwelcome behaviour.
All members of the public are encouraged to act responsible and to speak out if they see such behaviour.
To report a damaged or missing Life Buoy you should contact:
