Local residents of Eureka Street have been doing a mighty job talking with council officers, Councillors and their neighbours about the issue. Whether you agree with the development or not, these residents have been very clear in their message:

• that the community has not be consulted enough,
• other potential sites been identified nor assessed,
• we need a more innovative design for a heritage area. (check the images of what it will look like below)

It’s not too late to make a submission, and if you are keen come and support the residents at the meeting this week. Heck even put your name down to talk at the meeting, here’s how:

• Contact Governance at the Ballarat City Council on 03 5320 5535
• you MUST do this before 4.30pm on the day of the meeting (Wed Dec 10th)

Surely we can get a better result from what is predicted?
