WHITTLESEA: Mayor on the air
City of Whittlesea Mayor Cr Martin Taylor joined Raf Epstein on ABC Melbourne Mornings for the Meet the Mayor segment. “We spoke openly, directly and honestly about the major issues impacting the City of Whittlesea,” said Cr Taylor.
“We discussed a wide range of topics including the Wollert waste to energy incinerator proposal, housing supply, affordable housing access, population growth, council approvals and planning permits, construction impacts, dust and contamination concerns, the need for better access roads, road condition and congestion issues, green waste, e waste, illegal rubbish dumping, and the significant pressure rapid growth places on community amenity and liveability,” Cr Taylor said.
“We also spoke about the importance of continued advocacy and lobbying at both State and Federal levels, and our work and united strength through the Northern Councils Alliance. Nothing was off the table. “Thank you to every resident who listened live, called in, sent a question or engaged with today’s discussion. Your voice matters, and your involvement strengthens my work as Mayor of the great City of Whittlesea,” Cr Taylor said.
