We are aware it wasn't easy to watch the presentation of our Climate Emergency petition to Council's Planning and Development meeting live-streamed on Wednesday night. It wasn't easy to locate and was later in the meeting program than anticipated. If you missed it you may be interested in the following: To watch a recording of Wednesday’s BRC Planning and Development meeting, go to www.benalla.vic.gov.au and on the Homepage, scroll down to “Livestream Council Meeting”, and on that page, click on watch on our Youtube Channel, and finally, select Planning and Development meeting 29th September. The discussion re the Climate emergency petition starts at the 1hr and 4 minute mark of the recording. You might wish to continue watching through to when the Mayor, Danny Claridge moved a motion (2hr,14 min) and the ensuing 11 minutes of comments by various Councillors about the motion and their views on climate change. Alternatively, you can watch it on the link below. A message from John Lloyd to members of Benalla Sustainable Future Group
Some of you may be aware that BSFG has had a small working group investigating the possibility of a Community Owned Renewable Energy project for Benalla. The working group’s aim is to have Benalla become a zero net energy town which no longer relies on non-renewable energy. This would take a number of years to achieve and would certainly require council and community support. The working group will be making a presentation to the council on Wednesday evening about this goal and will be seeking council support to work towards our ‘vision’ of a 100% renewable Benalla. It would be good if some BSFG members were also there to listen to the presentation and show councillors that we are a significant group in the community. Wednesday’s council meeting is a public meeting and we are scheduled to make our presentation at 6pm in the Council Meeting Room/Council Chambers in Mair Street. Opposite the information centre. I hope to see some of you there. |
