Long weekend etc.

Hi all

We’re closed today, Monday, for the long weekend. We will see you tomorrow!

Last week we had some exciting things happening, including a birthday celebration at Community Lunch on Friday.

We also had a delivery of compost on Friday …. FOGO (from our green bins).

And I went to a really interesting meeting with the Minister for Planning, Sonya Kilkenny on Wednesday talking about placemaking and the character of our suburbs in the context of the new planning guidelines that are out for comment. The meeting was organised by our local MP Kat Theophanous and it was super - not just to hear from the Minister, but also to talk to and listen to other local stakeholders about key issues for our community such as public housing, river and catchment health, public transport infrastructure and pressures, and urban development controls (particularly for large developments such as Yarra Bend).

Thanks for organising it Kat.

I am not sure what I was laughing at here …
