2024 LODDON SHIRE COUNCIL ELECTIONS
Peter Bell wrote: With all these people throwing their hat into the ring, I just hope that they realise how time consuming the job would be. Even when you fight for your ward, then you have to fight to get it through the Shire power’s. It is good that people are willing to put themselves forward but your family need to back you 100 per cent. Best of luck to all the candidate’s the country towns certainly need somebody on their side, promoting and working to get the tourism dollars flowing through the regions, better roads, and support for the smaller businesses trying to survive, without all the burdens placed upon them by council regulations.
Charles Woodman wrote: I’ve seen several businesses closed down because of regulations placed on them, in some cases up to $50.000 must be spent to stay open. Most small businesses do not make that sort of money and just close their doors and walk away. Work with the business, not against them, ease up on the rules, or help them financially to stay open. No wonder so many small towns are struggling to be viable when this happens.
BIG DEBATE ON
LODDON RIVER CORELLAS
Glynn Jarrett wrote: As humans, with compassion and a conscience, we must stop killing, but learn instead to co-exist with wildlife. Culling is cruel, unnecessary and has never worked in the past.
Victoria Talbot wrote: They need culling. They destroy the trees and then move onto any grassy patches pulling it up. There has been a flock of them in Inglewood too on the oval and golf course.
Michelle Mead wrote: Victoria Talbot what an archaic suggestion. Surely a more intelligent solution can be sought?
Mark Davey wrote: Corellas, roos, and crocs. We need a good clean up.
Adam Veitch wrote: Why mess with nature. Camp at Bridgewater all the time. Love listening to them. The floods will kill the trees before the corellas.
Salli Dearricott wrote: It’s the grain storage that’s attracting them. No amount of culling will solve that problem.
Brett Simpson wrote: How is the grain storage attracting them?
Steve Jefferies wrote: Brett Simpson, smell of food.
Brett Simpson wrote: Steve Jefferies, so that’s the only source of food in the area is it? If that’s the case why doesn’t Dunolly and Elmore grain sites have this issue?
Jill Hobbs wrote: Brett Simpson …cos other towns don’t have an abundance of trees to nest in, roost in, chew at as well as water. These birds are environmental vandals.
Glynn Jarrett wrote: Jill Hobbs, This is their home, humans are the environmental vandals!
Elizabeth Rewiti wrote: The trees have been through two big floods now too.
