Our best community needs our best ideas.
Our team will focus on
Getting the basics right
Ensuring effective and efficient council administration
Maintaining beautiful streets and amenities (including mowing grass and trimming trees)
Fixing dangerous roads and footpaths
Battling illegal dumping
Creating community connections
Creating and designing places and spaces for people to meet
Organising activities for older people, especially those from a multicultural background
Connecting residents in high rise apartments with the rest of their community
Equal access to sports and recreation facilities
Creating all-weather fields for our local sports clubs
Building a local youth centre where teenagers can safely socialise
Making safe walking tracks at parks and between suburbs
Updating local swimming pools
There are many other issues in our community which also need to be addressed including overdevelopment, traffic congestion, de-amalgamation, industrial noise and pollution, waterway health and flooding, green spaces and canopy, cultural enrichment and diversity, urban health and more. These are big picture long term ongoing issues which always need attention, planning, and committment. Our plan is to work on getting the basics rights and ensuring that these big picture items are also addressed and not kicked down the road for someone else.
