(30/5/09 - P) Association stands up for rural areas
Last month MRRA made a submission on the draft State Residential zones. The main thrust of our submission is that it's time rural areas got a fair deal in planning. There isn't enough (if any) recognition of issues confronting rural areas, even in residential zones. Rural areas usually end up taking planning policy and controls that have been prepared for metro Melbourne, often with dire consequences, as many Macedon Ranges' residents know to their cost. Bushfire also doesn't get much consideration, so we put that up as an issue needing far more attention as well.

MRRA Goes 'National' !
(10/6/06 - P) It's getting bigger all the time...
Macedon Ranges Residents' Association has linked with Save Our Suburbs in Sydney and the NSW Central Coast. These groups in turn have posted MRRA's website on their links pages. Save Our Suburbs has, and is forging, links with community groups across Australia who have concerns with the way growth, development, and planning are going and what it's doing to where we all live.
Click www.sos.org.au/SYDNEY/Links/new_community_groups.htm to find MRRA on SOS's Sydney site.
Likewise, go to MRRA's Home Page and Community Clipboard to find out more about and access websites for both of these groups.
MRRA Says:
We think that's a 'Welcome Aboard' all round! We are not alone.
