Our next public meeting will be held on Wednesday, March 25 at 7.30 pm at the Raiders Club in Weston. Transport Canberra will brief us on the changes to the bus timetable - it's a good opportunity to raise the positives and the negatives of the new system. Also, ACT Health will discuss the proposed master plan for the Canberra Hospital 2021 to 2041.
The Coombs Shops: It is time for action! Council has written to the Minister for Planning stating that, "The time has come for the ACT Government to take decisive action to resolve what threatens to become one of the greatest planning blunders since the advent of self-government." Read the full letter on our website and if you agree then write to the Minister.
Health: With the spread of the Covid-19 virus in Australia please listen to the guidance being given by our Health experts. We all need to remain calm and work together through this crisis. The Weston Creek Walk-in-Health Centre is currently the place to assess possible cases.
Parking proposal at Cooleman Court: Council is waiting for further discussions with officials from TCCS about what is to be finally proposed for the site off Parkinson Street.
Survey: The initial results from our survey concern policing, traffic and parking at Cooleman Court, the poor state of public areas, street trees and footpaths, planning and development and rates and taxes.
Hooning: Council has received replies from the Minister for Police and the Minister for Road Safety in relation to "hooning" on our local roads. These are on our website but do not really bring any confidence that there will be any change to the current situation.
Trennery Square: We remain waiting for a response from TCCS on what we had proposed in changes to the Square to make it more attractive and inviting to our residents so that it will be utilised more.
Get in Touch: If there are issues that you wish to raise or discuss, please phone the council on 6288-8975. Otherwise, to keep-up-to-date with all issues affecting Weston Creek and Molonglo, please monitor the Weston Creek Community Council's website at westoncreek.org.au or follow us on Facebook.
