The Heatherdale Community Action Group (HCAG) has had a tremendously successful year through forging ongoing dialogue between residents, council and myself as the ward councillor for Loughnan’s Hill (which includes the eastern side of Heatherdale Road).

In particular the successful prosecution of Southern Rocycling for violations of the Health Act and the Planning and Environment Act by Maroondah City Council has demonstrated that the amenity of Heatherdale must be respected. While this prosecution has sent a strong message monitoring will continue and further potential noise violations will be investigated.
