Onya Dude ... for taking the steps to highlight to council the needs of the community. Would definately travel out for a dedicated facility.

In terms of community support ... and as a suggestion, have you linked any of the comments / actions etc from the RNP MTB plan from a few years ago ... ie, I remember there being a fairly large body of work by locals highlighting community interests ... including track day volunteer programmes etc ... which unfortunately was ignored or not allowed by NPWS. (something related to all track work must be by NPWS employees). Given council doesn't have similar regulations (assumption), this community (both shire and Sydney MTB in general) volunteering program would give a bit of weight to your proposal.

Anyway, good luck and will definately be joining the club shortly.

They (RNP) prolly wouldn't be all that helpful ? however, I remember finding all this info re minutes to meetings etc ... dating back to the public consultation phase of their bike access plan ... If tomorrow is a little slow at work, I'll see if I can find all the links ... I may also have some of the pdfs at work.

Pretty sure I stabled on all this stuff googling ... just incase I'm a little too slow getting back to you.
