Phase 2 consultation open for Food Truck preferred sites and locations

On 1 March 2018 changes to the Local Government Act 1999 and the Local Government (General) Regulation 2013 to facilitate the growth of Mobile Food Vending Businesses (MFVB) came into effect. This change impacts on Council's discretion to issue permits for a roadside trading purpose in relation to MFVB.

Stage 1 of this process was conducted in early 2018 and we are now seeking your thoughts on a broader suite of proposed MFVB (food truck) preferred sites and associated location rules. Consultation is open until 5:00pm, Friday 27 July 2018.

You can see the draft Rules at Council libraries and community centres, or click through to our Engagement HQ consultation site. Drop in information sessions will also be held in Gumeracha, Woodside, and Stirling.

Bridgewater Memorial nearing completion

The Bridgewater War Memorial is nearing completion with thanks to help from Australian Military Forces personnel, who have been chipping in recently to assist the landscapers with the final touches. The Memorial project was imagined by the students of Bridgewater Primary School, and has come together with funding from various grants, fundraising efforts, and contributions from local businesses, including two new flag poles from the Stirling Business Association.

If you would like to contribute funds to help finish this project in time for Remembrance Day, please contact Bridgewater Primary School. Any support will be greatly appreciated by the children and staff involved.
