Temporary fencing installed outside Templestowe Memorial Hall
… Memorial Hall On this page Capital Works Heritage Westerfolds Ward Media releases Venues and Facilities … Temporary fencing …
Article Content

You may have seen fencing around the Templestowe Memorial Hall in recent months. The Hall was damaged in 2021 when a vehicle accident damaged into the Hall. Works had been progressing to repair this damage.

Following the earthquake in September 2021 we inspected Council buildings for damage. Templestowe Memorial Hall’s external brick work was found to have several areas of concern which could lead to collapse of the wall.

“Templestowe Memorial Hall is a key community facility used by many organisations and groups in and around Templestowe” said Mayor Councillor Michelle Kleinert.

“Repairing this facility so it can be used is particularly important and something that can’t be rushed. Please bear with us as we bring this space back to life.”

As a valued and historical significant building we are working with engineer specialists to ensure the repairs consider the age and significance of the Hall.

After inspecting the site the specialists have recommended a Needle and Propping process. This involves propping the brickwork and repairing section of localised brickwork without having to remove the wall above.

Works are expected to be completed in late March and the Hall will be inspected regularly to ensure it still is safe and secure.

Join the parkrun family

Article Content

Westerfolds parkrun is a weekly free 5km community walk, jog or run event. It’s a positive, welcoming and inclusive experience where there is no time limit and no one finishes last.

Whether it’s running, walking or volunteering, participating in parkrun allows you to learn new skills, enhance your health and happiness, enjoy the outdoors, make new friendships, connect with your community and improve your overall fitness.

One of the best things about parkrun is you can just turn up and run, walk or jog. You just need to register online and bring along your allocated barcode with you which you receive via email. You can also participate with one furry friend or a baby and pram as well.

Westerfolds parkrun only happens because of the fantastic volunteers that make sure the event is set up, run successfully and packed away each week. There are plenty of volunteer opportunities to get involved in and they are always looking for more volunteers.

So why not grab your family and friends this Saturday morning and join in the next parkrun.

For more information and to register as a participant or volunteer, visit the parkrun website.

Council Endorses Green Gully Management Plan
… the popular Templestowe park.   On this page Councillors Westerfolds Ward Parks, Reserves and Playgrounds … Council Endorses Green …
Article Content

Following a period of extensive community consultation, Manningham Council has endorsed the Green Gully Linear Park Management Plan that will guide the future use, development and maintenance of the popular Templestowe park.

The vision for Green Gully Linear Park is:

  • To protect and improve the natural environment and habitat corridor of the Linear Park;
  • To promote community health by encouraging greater participation in park activities, and to improve cyclist and pedestrian connections.

Manningham Mayor Cr Jim Grivokostopoulos said that in line with this vision, Council has developed a Management Plan that will see new capital works funding of $1.4 million to protect and improve the park.

“The majority of the recommendations of the draft Management were well received and in particular there was support for the extension of the Green Gully Trail, to link directly with the Mullum Mullum and Main Yarra Trails.”

“The plan also includes the upgrade of the children’s playspace, the provision of fitness equipment, an automated toilet, new barbecue facilities, additional planting and seating and expanded car parking with an automated gate to restrict vehicle access to limited hours.”

Cr Grivokostopoulos said that during the consultation period Council was made aware of a range of community concerns about some of the proposed improvements resulting in a number of alterations to the original draft plan.

“We should be very proud of the new Management Plan that will implement our vision to make Green Gully Linear Park safer, more accessible and available for the enjoyment of the entire Manningham community.”

Information Night for VCAL at Pines Learning
… option for students in Years 11 and 12. On this page Westerfolds Ward Community Centres Kids and Family … Information Night …
Article Content

Community education organisation Pines Learning is accepting 2021 enrolments for its Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL), which provides a practical learning option for students in Years 11 and 12.

The Pines Learning VCAL program has been a part of the Manningham community since February 2008. It has allowed young adults to complete their final years of secondary schooling in an engaging, supportive and inclusive environment. Students who would have otherwise been unable to see a clear path to complete their education have been able to succeed.

Students from this year’s 2020 class described the environment at Pines Learning as welcoming and friendly, with an approach that changed their attitude to education.

VCAL enrolments for 2021 are open now and are ongoing throughout the year. Interested students can attend information sessions and tour the facility before deciding to enrol.

The next information session will be held on Thursday 19 November at 7.30pm on Zoom. To RSVP please call Pines Learning on 9842 6726, email info@pineslearning.com.au or visit their website.

River Peel sculpture to be relocated
… just south of the Yarra River.  On this page Capital Works Westerfolds Ward All News … River Peel sculpture to be relocated …
Article Content

One of Manningham's most recognisable landmarks is moving to a new home.

The iconic River Peel sculpture will be relocated from the Fitzsimons Lane and Porter Street roundabout in Templestowe to a site further along Fitzsimons Lane just south of the Yarra River. 

The River Peel sculpture is being relocated as part of the Major Road Projects Victoria upgrade to Fitzsimons Lane. The roundabout, which has been home to the sculpture for over ten years, is being upgraded to traffic lights to make it easier and safer to travel through. 

The Fitzsimons Lane upgrade plans to reduce congestion in peak periods to provide more reliable travel times, improve safety and make walking and cycling around the community safer. 

The plate steel sculpture was created in 2000 by artists Michael Bellemo and Catriona Macleod. The design reflects the Yarra River curves, as it bends and turns through the area, and an apple peel, as a homage to the history of orchards in the Doncaster and Templestowe areas.

The River Peel sculpture's new location will ensure it stays a gateway piece for Manningham and enjoyed by people in the 60,000+ vehicles using Fitzsimons Lane every day.

For more information about the Fitzsimons Lane upgrade, visit the Major Road Projects Victoria website.

Fitzsimons Lane upgrade to improve traffic and cycling
… traffic and cycling across the Yarra River. On this page Westerfolds Ward Parking, Roads and Footpaths … Fitzsimons Lane upgrade …
Article Content

Fitzsimons Lane is getting an upgrade to make it easier and safer to get you where you need to be.

The Victorian Government’s Major Road Project Team will improve four intersections in Eltham and Templestowe to improve traffic and cycling across the Yarra River.

The upgrade works are now coming up and BMD Constructions have been awarded the contract to deliver the project. For more information see Major Road Project Victoria’s February 2021 project update.

Over the next few months, you may see contractors completing site investigations, spending time setting up safe work areas and then starting to relocate or protect utility services and build drainage in the area.

The Fitzsimons Lane Upgrade plans to reduce congestion in peak periods to provide more reliable travel times, improve safety and make walking and cycling around the community safer.

You can sign up to stay up to date with the latest news on this upgrade by email or SMS via the Major Road Projects Victoria website.

Closure of Garden Waste Recycle Centre and BPA Initiatives
… the environment from hazards such as fire. On this page Westerfolds Ward Venues and Facilities Waste and Recycling … Closure of …
Article Content

The Garden Waste Recycle Centre has now been permanently decommissioned and closed.

In 2018 the State Government’s Waste Management Policy (Compostable Recycles and Waste Materials) came into effect. This policy was focused on ensuring that combustible recycle and waste materials at waste facilities are managed and stored in a manner that minimises risks of harm to human health and the environment from hazards such as fire.

Following a review of this policy and other guidelines, it was deemed the facility does not meet the guideline requirements. Over the past few years there have been several small fires which have ignited at the site, requiring the Country Fire Authority (CFA) to respond.

The centre, located at the corner of Websters Road and Blackburn Road, Doncaster East has been operating for the past 25 years. Residents have used the service to dispose of garden waste material from their property and to reduce their fuel loads in preparation for the summer bushfire season.

Manningham Mayor, CR Andrew Conlon said the closure of the Garden Waste Centre is a necessary option to manage risk and ensure the safety of our residents and environment.

“We are committed to the safety and protection of our residents and environment. Bushfires can start quickly and impact lives and homes. Closing this facility was necessary to minimise fire risk. We will continue to provide garden waste disposal services for residents in Bushfire Prone Areas.”

Manningham has a Bushfire Prone Area within the eastern parts of the municipality. Residents living in the Bushfire Prone Area (BPA) previously used complimentary Garden Waste Disposal Vouchers at the Garden Waste Recycling Centre.

Given the closure of the Garden Waste Recycling centre we implemented Garden Waste Disposal Days (GWDD) to assist residents that previously used Garden Waste Vouchers.

Disposal days have been found to be more efficient, cost effective and a favourable option, helping residents dispose of excess garden waste from their properties in the BPA. A community survey to residents living within BPA indicated that they found the initiative highly positive, found drop off easy and staff friendly and helpful.

The next Disposal Days are scheduled to take place in August and November 2021, allowing time for residents to manage their properties before the Fire Danger Period (FDP) is declared by the State Government.

Council has an interpreter service that can be reached on (03) 9840 9355 for any resident that would like to call and arrange to speak to someone in their own language about any Manningham Council matter.
