Balgowlah Village Searches for New Santa Ahead of Christmas 2026

Balgowlah Village shopping centre is searching for someone to take on the role of Santa Claus this Christmas, with local residents encouraged to apply even if they have no previous experience, white beard or round belly.

Recruitment company Promoworks Australia is seeking a friendly and outgoing person to join the centre’s Christmas photography experience from 23 November to 24 December 2026. The position offers paid casual work, flexible shifts and training, with the full Santa costume provided.

No Beard, No Belly, No Problem

The search for Balgowlah’s next Santa is focused more on personality than appearance, with recruiters looking for someone who enjoys interacting with children and families. Promoworks Australia owner Brenda Oglesby said the successful applicant would not need to look like Santa when applying. The company can provide the familiar white beard and round belly as part of the costume.

Applicants also do not need previous experience in the role. Instead, recruiters are looking for someone who is warm, confident and comfortable engaging with families during Christmas photo sessions. The successful candidate will receive training before taking on the position, which involves welcoming families and posing for photographs throughout the festive season.

Local residents are being encouraged to help find someone suitable for the role, with the search extending beyond experienced Christmas performers to anyone with the right personality. Recruiter Stephanie Smith has invited residents to suggest fathers, grandfathers, uncles or neighbours who might enjoy stepping into Santa’s boots. Those who know someone suitable are encouraged to pass on the opportunity and help spread the word.

The search places particular emphasis on finding someone who is good with children, enjoys meeting people and has an enthusiasm for Christmas. Confidence and an engaging personality are among the qualities recruiters hope to find.

The position is offered on a casual basis, with flexible shifts available. The advertisement does not specify an hourly pay rate, the number of shifts or a closing date for applications.

How Locals Can Apply

Seven Miles Coffee Remains at Balgowlah Site Despite McDonald’s Approval

Seven Miles Coffee has made no decision to relocate from its Balgowlah premises, despite court approval for a McDonald’s restaurant that would require the existing buildings at 37 Roseberry Street to be demolished.

Read: Balgowlah McDonald’s Wins Court Approval After Rejection and Hundreds of Objections

The company confirmed its position following the NSW Land and Environment Court’s ruling on 8 October 2026, saying it holds a valid multi-year lease and continues to operate its café, roastery and head office at the property near the Manly Vale border.

The announcement leaves questions about when redevelopment could begin, with neither a construction date nor arrangements for the existing tenant’s departure publicly confirmed.

Seven Miles continues trading on Roseberry Street

Seven Miles has maintained a longstanding presence in the Roseberry Street commercial precinct, serving customers while operating its coffee roasting business and head office from the property.

Chief executive Jody Leslie confirmed that no relocation decision had been made following the court ruling. The company intends to maintain normal operations and remains committed to its staff, customers and relationships within the local community.

Although Seven Miles has confirmed its multi-year tenancy, the remaining lease period and any arrangements concerning the proposed redevelopment have not been disclosed.

Court approval leaves tenancy arrangements unresolved

The Land and Environment Court’s decision permits demolition, earthworks, subdivision and construction of the McDonald’s restaurant, subject to development conditions.

The judgment also records that the property owner consented to the development application being lodged. However, the ruling does not establish when the existing tenant will vacate the premises or whether an agreement concerning vacant possession has been reached.

Development consent does not automatically terminate a commercial lease. Depending on the tenancy terms and arrangements between the parties, Seven Miles’ continued occupation could affect when construction begins, although no delay has been confirmed.

McDonald’s has welcomed the approval and outlined plans to invest more than $4 million in the restaurant. The company estimates the project would create approximately 50 construction jobs and 100 positions once operational, including full-time, part-time and casual employment.

Road upgrades planned around Roseberry Street

The approved redevelopment also includes changes to surrounding roads, where residents previously raised concerns about increased traffic and pedestrian safety.

McDonald’s must construct a mini roundabout at the intersection of Roseberry and Hayes streets, provide a widened pedestrian refuge and introduce measures to manage vehicle movements near Kenneth Road. The restaurant’s approved trading hours are restricted to 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily.

The timing of the roadworks remains dependent on the development proceeding, with no publicly confirmed construction schedule. For nearby residents, businesses and motorists using the busy commercial precinct, the approved changes have yet to translate into a definite timetable for works.

Seven Miles continues operating at 37 Roseberry Street while McDonald’s holds approval to redevelop the property. Neither company has publicly confirmed when the site might be handed over for construction.

Balgowlah McDonald’s Wins Court Approval After Rejection and Hundreds of Objections

McDonald’s has secured court approval for a drive-through restaurant at 37 Roseberry Street in Balgowlah, overturning an earlier planning rejection following hundreds of community objections over traffic, noise and public safety.

The NSW Land and Environment Court upheld the company’s appeal, granting consent for the development near the Manly Vale border. The amended plans include reduced trading hours, road upgrades and additional measures to address neighbourhood concerns.

New roundabout and shorter trading hours approved

McDonald’s must construct a mini roundabout at the intersection of Roseberry and Hayes streets to allow motorists to make U-turns when accessing the restaurant. A widened median island will provide a pedestrian refuge, while part of the 2,765-square-metre property will be dedicated to Northern Beaches Council for the roadworks.

The restaurant’s approved operating hours are 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., seven days a week, compared with the original proposal for 24-hour trading. The development also incorporates a revised building layout, improved acoustic measures, restrictions on waste collection times and operational management requirements.

Traffic safety was the sole issue remaining in dispute after a joint report from traffic experts. Further changes to the road arrangements resolved the council’s outstanding objections, allowing the amended application to proceed.

Court reverses unanimous planning rejection

The Northern Beaches Local Planning Panel unanimously rejected the proposal on 2 July 2025, citing concerns about traffic congestion, public safety and the site’s proximity to residential properties.

Approximately 740 objections were received across two consultation periods in February–March and May–June 2025. Residents raised concerns about increased vehicle movements around Roseberry Street and Kenneth Road, where supermarkets, large retailers and other businesses already generate substantial traffic.

Northern Beaches Police had also warned about potential crime and antisocial behaviour associated with late-night and early-morning trading. Other objections addressed noise, odours, pedestrian safety and the proposed restaurant’s impact on neighbouring homes.

Following McDonald’s appeal, the court considered revised plans, expert assessments and the objections raised by residents. Five objectors addressed the court during the hearing on 17 September 2026.

Acting Commissioner Helena Miller determined that the amendments and consent conditions adequately addressed the planning concerns or that the remaining objections did not justify refusal. Northern Beaches Council had agreed that its outstanding issues were resolved before the court approved.

Noise monitoring required after opening

The approval includes a requirement for an acoustic review within 30 days of the restaurant commencing operations. Testing must be conducted during a busy trading period, with the findings submitted to Northern Beaches Council.

If further physical works requiring approval are needed to achieve acoustic compliance, an application to modify the consent must be lodged within 30 days of the review. Any such works must receive approval before proceeding.

The court also assessed flooding, stormwater management and acid sulfate soils because the Roseberry Street property is classified as flood-prone land. Supporting environmental reports and management measures were considered sufficient to satisfy the relevant planning requirements.

Seven Miles Coffee site set for redevelopment

The approved restaurant would replace the existing premises occupied by Seven Miles Coffee Roasters at the corner of Roseberry Street and Kenneth Road.

Development consent permits demolition of the existing structures, earthworks, subdivision and construction of the new restaurant, including signage and associated road upgrades. McDonald’s has previously estimated the project would involve more than $3.9 million in investment and create over 100 local jobs and training opportunities.

The court judgment does not specify when construction will begin or when the restaurant will open. The project can now proceed subject to its approved plans and consent conditions.

North Balgowlah Street Safety Overhaul Completed as 40km/h Limit Begins

Photo Credit: NBC

North Balgowlah’s road-safety upgrade is complete, with new crossings, speed humps and other traffic-calming measures now installed across the neighbourhood ahead of a 40km/h speed limit taking effect.

Northern Beaches Council said the physical works were finished by 4 September, bringing to a close months of construction across local streets. Transport for NSW has also approved Council’s application to lower the speed limit from 50km/h to 40km/h, with new signs and road markings to be in place before the change begins.

Months of construction changed local streets

Construction ran from March to early September, with works carried out on streets including Daisy Street, Woodbine Street, Tottenham Street, Kalaui Street and Serpentine Crescent.

The project has included pedestrian crossings, flat-top speed humps, roundabouts, footpath upgrades and other traffic-calming measures. Council reported in June that new footpaths, kerbs and crossings were taking shape across several streets.

Plans also included stamped asphalt on Serpentine Crescent near the Burnt Bridge Creek bike track to alert drivers to cyclists entering the road, along with double centre lines around bends.

Traffic committee documents detail flat-top speed humps on Bangaroo Street, Water Reserve Road, Kalaui Street and Daisy Street, as well as other measures intended to support a lower-speed environment.

Speeding and cut-through traffic drove the project

Council said North Balgowlah was selected for the program because of its crash history, local shopping areas, high levels of walking and cycling and concerns about traffic using local streets as a shortcut.

Traffic committee papers also record complaints about speeding and heavy traffic on Woodbine Street and Bangaroo Street. Seven-day studies cited in the documents found 85 per cent of vehicles were travelling above the posted 50km/h limit on Woodbine Street and Myrtle Street.

Residents helped reshape the design

Council consulted residents in October and November 2024 on speed limits, crossings, footpaths and traffic-calming measures. Feedback led to revisions before councillors endorsed the updated proposal in April 2025.

Some residents objected to the number of traffic-calming devices, proposed chicanes on quieter streets and the loss of parking linked to pedestrian-safety works. Councillors asked the traffic committee to review measures that had attracted the strongest objections.

Council estimated 29 parking spaces would be lost as part of the pedestrian-safety works. Project material says designs were adjusted where possible to retain parking while maintaining the safety measures.

40km/h limit is the latest change

The speed-limit reduction will bring the regulatory side of the project into line with the physical changes already made on local streets.

NSW road rules set 50km/h as the default limit in built-up areas where no other limit is signposted. Local traffic areas can operate at 40km/h, while NSW speed-zoning standards allow lower limits in suburban streets supported by traffic-calming treatments.

Manly Vale Residents Raise Traffic Concerns Over 340-Dwelling Coles Proposal

Photo Credit: Google Maps

Manly Vale residents are raising concerns about traffic and B-Line capacity as a proposal for 340 shop-top dwellings at the existing Coles site on Koorala Street proceeds through the State Significant Development pathway.

Transport Concerns Shape Community Response

Local discussion around the proposal has focused heavily on how additional housing could affect roads and public transport in Manly Vale.

Residents raised concerns about congestion and the number of additional vehicles that could be associated with hundreds of dwellings at the Koorala Street site.

Morning B-Line services have also featured in the discussion, with one resident questioning how existing queues would cope with more passengers.

Another pointed to school bus services to and from Manly Vale Public School, adding another transport issue to concerns being raised about the proposal.

The discussion has not been limited to opposition to housing itself. One resident acknowledged the need for more homes while questioning whether the potential effect on local traffic had been adequately considered.

Coles Proposal — *Photo Credit: Google Maps*

Manly Vale Coles Site Listed For 340 Dwellings

The Housing Delivery Authority entry for the project identifies the site as 14 Koorala Street, Manly Vale, and lists 340 dwellings.

The proposed residential accommodation is described as shop-top housing.

The project is recorded under EOI 346021 and was considered by the Housing Delivery Authority at its meeting on 22 June 2026.

The entry records the proposal as recommended by the authority and later declared State Significant Development by the Minister under the HDA pathway.

It is also identified as a State Significant Development with concurrent rezoning.

Local Focus Remains On Roads And Buses

Community discussion has continued to centre on the practical effect hundreds of additional dwellings could have on travel through Manly Vale.

Some residents have focused on congestion around the area, while others have pointed to existing public transport pressures, particularly morning B-Line queues.

The official HDA entry confirms the scale of the proposal at 340 dwellings and its progression through the State Significant Development pathway, while the local discussion around Koorala Street continues to focus on how transport conditions could be affected if the proposal progresses.

A Balgowlah break-in at Porters Liquor on Sydney Road was among a series of overnight incidents across the Northern Beaches, with businesses in Balgowlah and Warriewood continuing to trade as police inquiries remained ongoing.

Balgowlah Break-In Part of Overnight Spree

Porters Liquor was broken into at about 2am on Tuesday, 1 September 2026. Its front security door was forced open, and 17 bottles of vodka were taken during an incident that lasted only a few minutes.

Police investigating the scene said the two suspects left in a vehicle stolen from Forestville. Police also said the same pair had been seen at between five and seven stores during the overnight series.

The Balgowlah business was left with damage to its entrance and had to arrange repairs while continuing to operate.

Warriewood Businesses Hit Soon After

At about 2:30am, a similar-looking pair arrived on Garden Street in Warriewood, where Liquor IGA and neighbouring cafe Eleven11 were also broken into.

A brick was used to damage the entrances. At Eleven11, the register was removed from the wall, while the point-of-sale system and glass frontage were also damaged. At Liquor IGA, about eight bottles of vodka were taken.

Detectives and forensic officers attended the known Balgowlah and Warriewood scenes as the investigation continued.

Shops Stay Open After Break-Ins

Porters Liquor, Warriewood IGA and Eleven11 remained open following the incidents despite the damage and repair work.

Staff at the Warriewood businesses also reported support from customers after the break-ins. The response came as the affected shops dealt with damage, repairs and losses from the overnight incidents.

NSW Police Break-In Safety Advice

NSW Police break-and-enter prevention guidance advises keeping doors and windows locked, using appropriate locks and considering measures such as protective glass film, alarms and CCTV. Police also recommend ensuring CCTV footage can be clearly recorded, reviewed and copied when needed.

Anyone who discovers a break-in is advised to avoid touching damaged locks or other items that may contain fingerprints or DNA until police have assessed the scene. Details of stolen property or vehicles, including identifying information, should also be gathered for police.

The Northern Beaches investigation remained ongoing. Anyone with information that may assist police, including relevant dashcam footage from the area at the time, was urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

North Balgowlah Potholes Highlighted as Repair Methods in Review

Clontarf Street at North Balgowlah has been identified among local pothole trouble spots as Northern Beaches Council considers ways to make repairs more durable. More than 9,000 potholes were repaired across council-managed roads in the 12 months to June.

Council weighs longer-lasting pothole treatments

Cr Vincent De Luca is seeking a review of pothole repair materials and techniques used by other Australian councils and road authorities. His proposal asks staff to examine more durable options, including full-depth asphalt patching and polymer-modified asphalt.

Northern Beaches Council says temporary pothole repairs can cost between $30 and $200 per hole, depending on the location and work required. Interim repairs are used to keep damaged roads safe before longer-term treatment is undertaken, while recurring failures can lead to heavier patching or resurfacing.

Questions about the durability of temporary repairs have previously been raised with the council. In September 2025, De Luca asked about repairs failing after rainfall and whether more cost-effective long-term methods had been investigated.

Wet weather adds pressure to damaged roads

Council has said prolonged rain can allow water to enter cracks in road surfaces, weakening pavement as traffic continues to pass over affected areas. During a wet period in 2025, 1,568 potholes were recorded between July and August, with 1,355 made safe.

Longer-term treatments used across the Northern Beaches include crack sealing, microsurfacing, heavy patching and road resurfacing. Additional funding from the council’s Special Variation to rates has supported road maintenance and renewal projects across the Northern Beaches, including works in several suburbs where potholes have been reported.

McIntosh Road moves to major pavement works

McIntosh Road between Dee Why and Narraweena has drawn particular attention after repeated pothole complaints. Council has said about $1.5 million will be spent on the worst-affected section, including pavement strengthening, kerb and gutter replacement and resurfacing.

A separate Australian Government project listing for McIntosh Road records an estimated project cost of $1.25 million and describes the pavement as affected by cracks, potholes and patches.

Broader renewal work is continuing across the area. Council reported $1.41 million in road resurfacing during April across Bayview, Beacon Hill, Dee Why, Narraweena and North Balgowlah.

ConnectSydney separately completed about 532 pothole repairs on contracted state roads in the Northern Beaches local government area from January 2025.

Residents can report council-road damage to Northern Beaches Council, while potholes on state roads including Warringah, Pittwater and Mona Vale roads are handled through the NSW Government.

Inside the Balgowlah Veterinary Clinic Where Local Pets Give the Gift of Life

Photo Credit: SASH

Balgowlah veterinarians are calling on healthy neighbourhood dogs and cats to join a unique community blood bank, where a simple half-day visit filled with cuddles and treats can literally save injured animals.

A Growing Community Effort

Since 2007, the Small Animal Specialist Hospital network has operated a canine blood bank to meet the intense demand for emergency transfusions. Now, that same initiative includes cats. What happens behind the scenes at their twenty-four-hour Roseberry Street clinic? Healthy neighbourhood dogs and felines frequently drop by to supply much-needed red blood cells and plasma.

Trauma victims, sick animals, and those facing surgical complications desperately rely on this generosity. Instead of relying solely on staff pets, the registry now boasts hundreds of privately owned animals ready to help their peers.

Paying the Kindness Forward

Have you ever wondered what motivates someone to sign their pet up for such a program? For local resident Safina, the decision stemmed from a terrifying medical crisis. Her previous cat survived a major surgery only because volunteer felines had donated blood. Remembering that lifeline, she enrolled her new rescue cat, Billie, into the donor system. Safina shared that watching a former street cat grow up to provide that exact same gift to other local families brings her immense joy. It is a pure exchange of compassion across species boundaries.

Surprising Medical Facts

Animal blood transfusions carry some fascinating quirks. Unlike the complex human typing system, dogs generally fall into positive or negative categories. Astonishingly, a canine can safely receive any blood type during its very first emergency transfusion.

But what happens when feline blood is completely unavailable during a critical shortage? Veterinarians can perform a xenotransfusion. This extreme measure involves temporarily pumping dog blood into a dying cat. It simply buys the surgical team enough time to locate a proper match.

The Royal Treatment

Donating blood is hardly a stressful ordeal for these furry volunteers. The half-day hospital stay resembles a luxury spa visit. Medical staff apply a gentle numbing agent to the neck before quickly collecting blood from the jugular vein.

Comfort remains the absolute priority. Owners consistently report that their pets are completely spoiled with continuous praise, endless cuddles, and delicious snacks. They even head home wearing a custom bandana to mark their bravery.

Joining the Donor Registry

Could your own companion join this life-saving roster? The clinic requires dogs to weigh at least seventeen kilograms, be aged between one and seven years, and maintain a highly obedient demeanour. Feline candidates need a calm disposition, a minimum weight of four kilograms, and an age between one and eight years.

All participants must be perfectly healthy and fully vaccinated. In exchange for their quiet heroism, the hospital rewards these animals with complimentary vet checks, comprehensive blood tests, and premium parasite prevention. They also receive a generous gift pack and a hero certificate for their vital community service.

Drink-driving Crash at Balgowlah Intersection Leaves Traffic Light Destroyed and Porsche Written Off

A drink-driving crash at Balgowlah left a busy intersection without a working traffic light and a luxury Porsche badly damaged after a late-night collision on Sunday 12 July.

Emergency services were called to Condamine Street just after 11.30pm, with NSW Police, NSW Ambulance and Fire and Rescue NSW’s Manly Station all responding. They arrived to find a 2019 Porsche Cayenne had come to rest on the footpath at the corner of Condamine Street and Hayes Street, directly outside the Coco Republic furniture store.

According to Northern Beaches Police Area Command, the vehicle had been travelling northbound on the Burnt Bridge Creek Deviation when it lost control approaching the Condamine Street intersection. It struck a traffic light in the middle of the intersection before sliding roughly 50 metres along the road, mounting the kerb, clipping a small tree, and coming to rest wedged between a light pole and the concrete front wall of the store. Both airbags deployed on impact.

The three occupants — a 32-year-old man, a 30-year-old woman, and their dog — all made it out of the vehicle under their own power. Paramedics assessed the pair on scene, and the woman was treated for minor facial injuries. The dog was unharmed.

Police were already in the area that night searching for a vehicle connected to a separate, unrelated pursuit when they came across the crash. Officers conducted a roadside breath test on the driver, which allegedly returned a positive reading. He was transported to Dee Why Police Station, where a secondary test allegedly recorded a blood alcohol concentration of 0.055 — placing him in the low-range prescribed concentration of alcohol (PCA) category.

The 32-year-old was issued an infringement notice for the low-range PCA offence and had his driver’s licence suspended on the spot for three months.

Beyond the legal consequences, the crash is likely to carry a significant financial sting. A drink-driving conviction typically voids comprehensive motor vehicle insurance cover, meaning the driver may have to bear the cost of repairing — or replacing — the Porsche Cayenne himself. Models of that year and specification currently fetch around $80,000 on the used car market.

Firefighters cleared debris from the road, cordoned off the downed traffic light with barrier tape, and applied absorbent material to a fluid spill beneath the vehicle. Transport for NSW was notified of the damaged signal, which had exposed live electrical wiring requiring urgent attention before the site could be made safe.
