Council Meeting for Residents - 5 Nov 2009

A Ward Meeting has been organised by our Councillor Brad Miles for 7pm on Thursday 5 November 2009 at the Marwal Centre in Balwyn North.
A council notice should be coming out shortly regarding this. Please keep the date free and rejuggle commitments if you are able to as we need to meet as a community to discuss our current situation.
Also, please spread the word amongst your neighbours.
We all need to be aware that VicRoads have no plans to remedy the gaps in our limited noise attenuation measures, i.e. dirt mounds, until the noise level reaches 68 dBA, which is effectively more than a doubling of current noise levels. Even then, we would only be added to a list to be allocated funds when the State budget allows.
