Easter and Australian flags?

At the last Bayside Council meeting, the Liberal team
put forward a motion for council to display Easter flags during the Easter celebration.

The result was Council agreeing to revisit our flag schedule.

This had me thinking about why Australian flags are not proudly flown around Bayside?

Are we not proud to be Australian?

What do you think?

COYG - congrats to all the gunners out there in Bayside Council on Arsenal taking out the title.

Here I am in 2012.

Council has upgraded its online tool, 'Report It', adding four new lighting categories to make it quicker and easier for residents to report lighting issues in their local area.

Residents can now report lighting faults in Bayside carparks, parks, and sports fields, or request a new street light location, all online from their phone or device, ensuring requests reach the right team without delay.

'Report It' can also be used for a range of other common requests, including illegal parking, dumped rubbish, road or footpath repairs, trees of concern, and unapproved building work.

A big win for the community last night ✅

Council resolved to continue on the first step towards an all weather field at L’Estrange Park - a design budget has been allocated.

We defeated the motion to reverse this decision with support from Clr Christina Curry and Clr Scott Morrissey.

Next step is for this to report back to council with a design and cost benefit analysis once finalised for a final decision.

Whilst the fight is not over, this is a massive first step.

I want to thank the community for their continued support especially Mascot Kings Football (Soccer) Club.

Let’s keep supporting our football clubs and especially our kids.

They deserve this.

Great outcome for the community with Bayside Council purchasing the three properties on Botany Road to expand Mascot Memorial Park.

This will create more green space (more than 1700 square meters).
