Heatherdale Community Action Group – first meeting for 2007

Posted on by alex

The Heatherdale Community Action Group has resumed meeting for 2007 amid further civic disobedience from Southern Rocycling.

Maroondah City Council is pursuing these matters as well as conducting ongoing monitoring of Heatherdale Road. Southern Rocycling is facing court action on the 8th of March in regard to violations under the Health Act and Planning and Environment Act, furthermore the EPA is proceeding with a hearing currently scheduled for the 14th of March.

I urge the Heatherdale community to contact me should they be concerned about the activities of Southern Rocycling.

Heatherdale Community Action Group (HCAG) End of Year Celebrations for 2006

Posted on by alex

The Heatherdale Community Action Group (HCAG) has had a tremendously successful year through forging ongoing dialogue between residents, council and myself as the ward councillor for Loughnan’s Hill (which includes the eastern side of Heatherdale Road).

In particular the successful prosecution of Southern Rocycling for violations of the Health Act and the Planning and Environment Act by Maroondah City Council has demonstrated that the amenity of Heatherdale must be respected. While this prosecution has sent a strong message monitoring will continue and further potential noise violations will be investigated.
