12.01.2022 Local Government's are predominantly tasked with waste management, it is the role of the State Government to monitor crime and protection of our environment. Rate payers should not be footing the bill for illegal rubbish dumping and environmental damage. Tonight I submitted two important motions which were seconded by Cr Lara Carli - City of Melton - Watts Ward and Cr Julie Shannon - City of Melton and voted in favour by all my fellow councillors. ... Motion 1. That in response to Illegal rubbish dumping becoming a significant problem in Melton, and going beyond the scope of local government to control, which is causing environmental and ecological damage that requires a state level response, Council write to the Honourable Shaun Leane Minister for Local Government, the Honourable Lily D’Ambrosio Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change, and Steve McGhie MP, calling on the State to include illegal rubbish dumping in environmental policies, strategies and funding to tackle the issue. 2. Building on neighbouring council’s partnership with Victoria Police to tackle hooning, Melton City Council work with Victoria Police to increase patrols of areas within the community that have high incidence of illegal dumping of rubbish and issue fines with the objective to deter people from dumping.

12.01.2022 With Christmas over and some down time between now and New Years Eve, I thought it would be the perfect time to head out fishing with the family. Unfortunately there is limited safe access to the Melton Weir. A gem stone of Melton but inaccessible to many. What are your thoughts and opinions, is it time we invested in this asset and what would you like to see and do at the Melton Weir?
