Penny Paperbark Working Group

Where: Paperbark Woodland, Sisters Inlet – between the two main bridges, just west of the car park.

What: We will be protecting some more of the sprouting paperbark shoots with tree guards, anchoring down roots that have shoots coming out, and laying the next lot of the brush mattresses. We will also test out the photopoints that have been set up on the site – using your phones.

If you don’t have time to help out on this day, feel free to drop in and find out more about what we are doing. 

After this, the next working bee is likely to be over Easter, when Janet will come down with a whole lot of friends from the big island - all are welcome to be part of this.

WHAT TO BRING ON WEDNESDAY:

  • Hats, gloves, long pants, sunscreen & suitable shoes

  • Trowels, weeding spades

  • Hammers (heavy hammer is best, but any will do)

  • A staple gun, if you have one

  • Hamilton Tree Planters, if you have any

  • Bring something to share for afternoon tea – our last two have been awesome!

  • Water and/or thermos with tea or coffee

Tell others who might be interested, everyone welcome.

By this date we should see the fence up - the poles went in yesterday.

SBCA Meeting

COMMUNITY MEETING TO DISCUSS PROPOSED NEW SUBDIVISIONS

6PM @ The Pear Tree Cafe & Bar - Pizza & Beers available
(pre order if you like Ph: 64 451147)

Some talking points raised on our facebook page as a conversation starter…

  • Public Open Space - there is no provision for any in this new subdivision proposal (or any of the recent subdivisions)

  • Trend in other states to move away from high density housing close to National Parks and Forest Reserves

  • Fire threat - single road access, lessons from Mallacoota

  • Single Road Access into village – extra pressure on wildlife deaths, speed limit, extra traffic, evacuation

  • Infrastructure – sewage, stormwater (high water table), extra traffic around streets etc

  • Liveability during construction – extra traffic from trucks and service vehicles/impact for many years

  • Serrata Crescent – vacant blocks

  • The recent proposal to change the traffic on Bridge Street (at the bridge) – single lane/extra traffic/trucks?

  • Town planning and future

  • Community consultation

  • WWC iCEP 2019 Key findings

For the community to have a voice at this stage - representations will need to be with council by Tuesday 28 January.
