Councillor Jerome Boutelet - Ward 2 Bayside Council

Directions

I am your Councillor for Bayside Council (Ward 2)

31/10/2026

This intersection at Church Avenue and Bourke Street Mascot is just an accident waiting to happen.

That is why I am glad that Council has finally seen sense and will begin progressing planning of traffic lights in this area.

The current situation is a danger to the entire community.

Bayside will look to advance the delivery of all weather sporting fields including at L’Estrange Park, Mascot 👇

Did you know that Bayside manages over 350 parks and reserves, including more than 300 hectares of open green space, which is equal to about 420 football fields.

Is it too much to ask for ONE all weather football field for the hundreds of children that play football in Mascot?

On a few counter arguments:

Environment: technology has advanced significantly to use recyclable materials.

Cost: Bayside currently holds hundreds of millions of dollars from developer contributions. Bayside will also ask state and federal governments for contributions. The cost of less sporting activities for our kids should also be considered.

Injuries: uneven surfaces and holes in existing turf fields are dangerous. We need even playing fields.

Ultimately. This is bread and butter infrastructure that Bayside should be delivering.

It’s time Mascot got the sporting infrastructure it deserves.

I will write to both Bayside Council and Sydney Water about the flooding issue at Linear Park.

It is unfair for anyone to have to wade through this especially those with prams and the elderly.

This needs to be fixed.

Thank you to those that raised this issue with me directly.

GOOD NEWS ABOUT LINEAR DOG PARK MASCOT

Bayside Council will submit an updated plan to Sydney water WITH GRASS as the majority layer of the dog park.

A big thank you to Mayor Christina Curry for coming down to Linear Park to listen to residents about keeping grass at the new dog park.

Also massive thanks to all the dog owners that came down especially to Joshua Rodgers for organising.

I will keep you updated!

ILLEGAL PARKING IN EASTLAKES

I’ve had a number of people cite the illegal parking front of The Grand Eastlakes Shopping Centre.

I’ve now highlighted with Council, but if you see something and are concerned feel free to call Rangers on 1300 581 299.

Update on the Linear Dog Park

I am told that Bayside Council are exploring options to install new turf at the dog park.

The current grass is being removed to add an additional protective layering before new grass can be added.

So don’t be dismayed. I’ve been pushing for a grass option and hope we get there.

I’ll be down at the park Saturday 10am if you’re free.

L’Estrange Park Update ⚽️ 🏀

Dog park on it’s way - good outcome for the doggie community BUT

I AM AGAINST REMOVAL OF THE GRASS

I have had a number of people ask me about the surface.

I have been advised that the agreement with Sydney Water is that this has to be PEA GRAVEL.

I do not agree with this decision and have lobbied against it.

The firm decision from council and Sydney water is that there is potential asbestos contamination and grass is unsuitable as they do not want dogs digging up potential contaminates.

The other problem is that if we were to push for grass, this could delay the dog park until the site is completely free of contamination.

Whilst this isn’t ideal, it’s a step in the right direction and perhaps together we can call for an upgrade of this dog park in future.
