Save the parkland - extraordinary meeting!
Dear members and supporters of the Save the Merri and Edgars creek parkland group,
Important information has just come to light.
VicRoads have put a deadline for a decision by council to purchase the lands under threat of 28th February 2007. VicRoads can then put the land up for sale to developers.
The next council meeting is Wednesday 14th February 2007, at which the council will need make its decision.
The committee is inviting all members, new and old and any representatives of interested groups to attend an extraordinary meeting to establish a wave of protest and pressure to ensure the land remains in public hands.
When: Sunday 4th February at 2.00pm
Where: Civic Centre, 90 Bell Street, Coburg.
Room: Concert Hall East (entry via Urquhart St plaza area).
The park needs your support now.
A more detailed outline and action list and newsletter will follow after the meeting. Please forward this to any interested parties not listed above who can lend assistance. In the meantime time please ring and write to counselors & ministers.
A large attendance at the council meeting is also sought.
