5 May 2019 by
The trees poisoned last year are still hanging in there, and one in particular has thrown up a lot of new growth.

Report for AGM 2015
19 December 2015 by
Chair’s report for Annual Meeting: November 30 2015

Like most residents’ groups across the isthmus, there were so many of these and the timetabling was so onerous that we simply did not have the time to attend them all and so we prioritised them based on the key issues for our neighbourhood: intensification, zoning and heritage protection.
