25.01.2022 CLEAN UP: An enthusiastic group of residents gathered on Saturday, World Environment Day, to help clean up our area. Forest Lake Ward Councillor, Charles Strunk, said it was his fifth clean up day, as local councillor, and he was always inspired by the efforts of residents. Cr Strunk said it had also been a great opportunity to meet founder of Devicentrix, Alfred, who has started a litter pick up program that will see volunteers upskilled and receive remuneration for their ef...forts. Im looking for volunteers from school age to adults that want to give back to the community,'' Alfred said. Anyone that would like to upskill and be paid during the school break is welcome to contact me. Cr Strunk said his wardoffice also has small organic bins that residents can collect after they have registered with a community hub. You can register online or contact the Forest Lake Ward Office on 34071211 or via email at [email protected] See more

16.01.2022 Council is being asked to buy up habitat to help our koalas as part of Save the Koala Month. Im calling on the Lord Mayor to act with urgency by preserving land and allocating funds to give koalas safe homes to prevent (extnction) from occurring in Qld, Forest Lake Ward Councillor Charles Strunk said. He said that, partly as a result of last year's bushfires, it had been estimated koalas would become extinct in NSW by 2050. But he said that could be prevented in Qld and he... called on council to do it's bit. "An example of koala habitat that needs saving is 415-427 Beckett Rd, Bridgeman Downs,'' he said. "Council has previously rejected the developers' application for this site on multiple occasions as it is inappropriate for the area and detrimental to the surrounding environment. This area should be made into a reserve for koala conservation, as this is the only continuation of the mountains to the mangroves wildlife corridor along Beckett Rd. Residents can sign the Save the Koalas! Sop Development! petition on change.org https://www.change.org/p/brisbane-city-council-save-the-koa development. This petition has received more than 10,500 signatures. See more

14.01.2022 INALA LOCAL STARS IN SBS TV SHOW Well done Oakley Kwon, one of the stars of new SBS drama Hungry Ghosts. Screening over four nights from Aug 24-27, it's about four families haunted by their own ghosts during the festival of the same name. It's a big step up for the Neighbours actor, who played Tanya Conlin in episodes last year. Trained at NIDA, she arrived in Australia as a refugee from Vietnam, aged two, on a boat abandoned at sea by the crew. The journey was as dramatic as anything she's played on-screen - the boat drifted for days after the engine failed, food and water ran low, pirates almost snatched her mum as Kwon cowered under a tarp. Kwon went on to earn a Masters in Law from ANU, was admitted to the Supreme Court and has worked in media, public and legislative policy, innovation and digital transformation.

09.01.2022 PARK UPGRADES: Five local parks will receive more than $500,000 in upgrades under the Forest Lake Ward Suburban Enhancement Fund. Forest Lake Ward Councillor, Charles Strunk, said it was part of $6.7 million in funding commitments in the Brisbane City Council Budget. He thanked residents for their feedback on Castamore Way Park and Eugenia Street Park (Richlands), Mulgrave Street Park and St Andrews Park (Forest Lake) and Peacock Street Park (Doolandella). Surveys were mailed... out to nearby households. The next step we will be undertaking is one-on-one community consultation at the five parks to discuss the plan of upgrades,'' Cr Strunk said. "I have put in place a Covid-19 safe plan that will allow residents to stop by for chat and to view the plans, based on the feedback I received. More than 80% of residents that responded to my community survey want to see Council invest in more swings, slides, climbing structures, flying foxes, basketball courts and BBQs with seating.
