Welcome to the website of Cr. Alex Makin
Thank you for visiting my web site.
It is a great honour and privilege to have been re-elected as the Councillor for the Mullum Ward in the City of Maroondah. It is due to your support that we have been able to create a better municipality for the many residents, ratepayers, businesses that are part of the Maroondah community.
Over the next four years we can further create a municipality that is sustainable and accessible and a council that is accountable to the community.
It is a humbling experience to have been elected as the Mayor for the 2010 Council Year, I look forward to working with my colleagues, staff and the community to ensure that we can achieve a sustainable, accessible and vibrant future for our municipality.
Together we can continue making a difference.
About the Mullum Ward
The Mullum Ward in the City of Maroondah
The City of Maroondah is divided into three wards each represented by three councillors.
The Mullum Ward covers the western portion of Maroondah and is bound by the City of Whitehorse along Heatherdale Road and the City of Manningham along Glenvale Road, as well as the City of Knox along the Dandenong Creek.
The ward includes the suburbs of Ringwood, Ringwood North and parts of Ringwood East, Heathmont and Croydon. A number of prominent landmarks and community facilities are located within the Mullum Ward including Ringwood Station, Ringwood Lake, Eastland, Maroondah Hospital, Jubilee Park, Quamby Reserve, Ringwood Aquatic Centre, North Ringwood Community House, Central Ringwood Community House, Proclamation Park and Maroondah Federation Estate.
The Mullum Ward was created due to a restructure in 2008, which resulted in merging the wards of Loughnan’s Hill and Mullum with some parts of the former Yarrunga and Clocktower wards.
