Redland City News staff visited the bay islands last week to spread the word about the city’s new local paper and hear from islanders about the most important issues in their community.
Publisher David Johnston and editor Jordan Crick made the short barge trip over to Russell and Macleay islands last Thursday for a catch-up with residents, business owners and community groups.
Several issues were discussed during the outing, including the need for public transport improvements, a lack of short-term accommodation on the islands and parking issues at Weinam Creek.
Redland City News wants to hear from islanders about events happening in their community and the challenges facing the islands as the population continues to increase.
