    Suburban Rail Loop (SRL)
    … Manningham Council has welcomed commencement of works on the Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) but is disappointed that the …

    A rail line to Doncaster

    The Victorian Government's proposed underground rail link will connect suburbs from Cheltenham to Werribee.

    The Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) includes a Doncaster Station. However construction may be over ten years away.

    map showing the proposed stations and route of the Suburban Rail Loop

    We are advocating for the Doncaster Station footprint to be set aside as part of Stage 1, to allow for planning of the Doncaster Hill precinct. For an express bus service that mirrors the Suburban Rail Loop Alignment. Providing a public transport connection to key education, healthcare and employment precincts.

    Congestion on the Eastern Freeway

    Why do we need a rail line to Doncaster?

    Over 125,000 people in our community will benefit from a Doncaster Station. Currently our only public transport option is an over-crowded bus network that is often delayed by traffic congestion.

    With Doncaster Hill’s population and traffic continuing to grow, we are urging the Victorian Government to include a Doncaster Station in stage two of the SRL and secure a location for the train station now.

    Manningham is the only municipality without a tram or train line.

    Car ownership per household is considerably high and daily public transport use for employment purposes is below the metropolitan average.

    Our bus system is buckling under pressure to provide enough services and meet capacity for our growing city.

    A chalk sketch of a conceptualisation of Doncaster Hill station at MC Square

    Doncaster Station not part of stage one construction

    We are strongly advocating to the Victorian Government to include Doncaster Station in Stage two of the SRL.

    We are working with stakeholders and the SRL Authority to secure a site location for the future train station.

    What’s next?

    We will continue to work with the Suburban Rail Loop Authority and the Department of Transport to advocate for improved public transport services to Manningham.

    We want

    • fewer roads
    • more public transport options for our community
    • a railway station to Doncaster

    What is being upgraded in Doncaster Hill?
    … our community lives, works and enjoys this neighbourhood.  On this page Doncaster Hill … What is being upgraded in …
    Article Content

    We’re making a series of upgrades throughout Doncaster Hill - designed to improve the way our community lives, works and enjoys this neighbourhood. 

    These works form a part of our infrastructure planning for this area and the long standing Doncaster Hill Strategy. 

    Open space upgrades for Doncaster Hill

     

    Designing for a new park in Doncaster Hill

    July 2020 to July 2021

    We are currently in the detailed design phase with demolition and construction to commence in the second half of 2021.
    This park will provide additional open space to everyone living in the Doncaster Hill area.
    To be located on Hepburn Road in Doncaster, properties have been acquired to make way for the new community park.

     

    Walker Reserve has been upgraded

    November 2019 to December 2019

    Walker Reserve received an upgrade including a new path, bench, trees and vegetation on site.
    A new spring balance toy was installed for children to enjoy.
    The upgrades are designed to make the park more accessible and enjoyable for the local community.

    Making Tram Road safer for our community

     

    Investigating a new U-turn lane on Tram Road

    Investigating a new U-turn lane to be built on Tram Road to provide motorists with a safe and legal location to perform U-turns. The new lane would also help to reduce the number of illegal U-turns being performed outside of the Applewood Retirement Village.

     

    Pedestrian signals at the Applewood Retirement Village

    The Federal Government has committed to funding new pedestrian signals on Tram Road outside of the Applewood Retirement Village in Doncaster. The new signals will help residents to safely cross Tram Road and access the adjacent bus stop.

    The Victorian Department of Transport is managing this project and responsible for the timing of its delivery. We support this project to improve safety and access for pedestrians on Tram Road.

    Creating more connections through local streets

     

    Extension to Hepburn Road including a shared path

    Hepburn Road has been extended from Walker Street to create a connection through to Clay Drive. Due to Covid restrictions, we are still finalising the shared path connections for pedestrians and cyclists but the road is now open to commuters. These improvements will enable easy access for local residents wanting to enjoy the new community park on Hepburn Road.

     

    New traffic lights at the Tram Road and Merlin Street intersection

    New traffic lights will be installed at the intersection of Tram Road and Merlin Street.

    These lights will assist traffic flow through the southern area of Doncaster Hill, help residents to easily access Tram Road and create a safer road environment for all users.

    North East Link - what’s next?
    … community in regards to the North East Link (NEL) project. On this page Key Projects North East Link All News … North …
    Article Content

    We’re continuing to advocate for the best outcome for our community in regards to the North East Link (NEL) project.

    In February, Council unanimously agreed to seek a judicial review into the Inquiry and Advisory Committee (IAC) Environment Effects Statement (EES) hearing process and the Minister’s assessment of the EES. The Directions Hearing for the Supreme Court challenge is scheduled for 24 April, and the Supreme Court hearing will be later in the year.

    Irrespective of this, we will continue to work constructively with NELP and the State Government to ensure the interest of our community remains at the forefront of any discussions.

    NEL early works are being delivered by PCB Contractors with underground works and site investigations such as borehole drilling to occur throughout the proposed alignment. Residents may notice access pits and launch shafts in the Bulleen area. Any concerns about early works should be directed to NELP by contacting their hotline on 1800 105 105.

    In late 2020, the contractor for the construction of the North East Link will be announced. We will work with this contractor to help influence the final design and advocate for the commitments we have asked for to offset the impacts of the project.

    Construction of the new tunnels is expected to commence in 2021 and works to the Eastern Freeway are anticipated to start from 2023.

    Find out more and stay up to date on our advocacy work.

    We love our pooches in Manningham. You've told us which dog friendly parks get your dog's wag of approval and here are your top 5 revealed.

    Get out and about and test out one of the top 5 on your next walk.

     

    5. Finns Reserve

    Perfect for dogs who love a long walk. 

    Duncan Street, Lower Templestowe

    The surrounding bushland trails of Finns Reserve will let you and your dog be one with nature and keep away from the hustle and bustle of the streets.

    In open spaces near Wombat Bend enjoy a game of fetch or tug of war. Don't forget that you will need to keep a distance of 15 metres from the playground.

    Visit Finns Reserve - Wombat Bend.

     

    4. Banksia Park

    Perfect for your morning walkies

    3 Templestowe Road,  Bulleen

    Both surveys were conducted independently and report on statistically significant results. Overall, you rated us higher than the average rating for councils state-wide and the same as for councils in the metropolitan group.

    Our top 3 performing service areas are waste management, recreational facilities and emergency and disaster management but there were also some services where there are opportunities for improvement. We also heard about your expectations, our performance and how you prefer to communicate with us.

    Article Content

    Manningham families will get a chance to show off their favourite local playspaces in Manningham as Council launches its Top Five Manningham series for 2018.

    Manningham Mayor Cr Andrew Conlon said the community was invited to name their favourite playspace in an online poll open until 5 February. 

    “One of the key themes of Council’s four year strategic plan is fostering healthy communities,” he said.  

    “With more than 300 parks and 150 local playspaces, Manningham has one of the largest networks of open and recreation spaces in metropolitan Melbourne.”

    Through strong partnerships with the community, Council aims to create a healthy, safe and connected community with inviting places and well maintained community infrastructures. 

    “We want to know which playspaces are most popular to our community and why,” Cr Conlon said. 

    “It will assist Council in supporting healthy lifestyles, improve our community’s general wellbeing and encourage more young families to visit.”

    The poll is available on Council’s website www.manningham.vic.gov.au/top-5-playspaces and is open to everyone until 5.00pm, Monday 5 February, with the results revealed shortly after.

    The building permit process

    Find out why you need a building permit is what it is and when you need to get one. ...

    Find out why you need a building permit is what it is and when you need to get one.

    Why do you need approval?

    When you wish to build, you need to ensure that your proposed building is constructed safely and is guided by the following State Government legislation:

    • Building Regulations
    • Building Act
    • National Construction Code and other standards.

    It is our role is to ensure your building(s) remains complaint with this legislation.

    What is a building permit?

    A building permit includes detailed construction drawings and technical documents for proposed building works, practitioner registration and insurance. Your private building surveyor issues you the building permit which they then submit to us for record keeping.

    There are times when you will need to present evidence of your building permit, such as when you sell your property. Illegal building works can create significant problems during the sale of a property.

    Do you want to be an owner builder?

    If the works or a part of the works done cost more than $5000, the person doing the work must be a registered practitioner. Only registered practitioners can get building permits. It is possible to become an owner builder if you meet the right criteria and get the right certifications. Visit the Victorian Building Authority (VBA) to learn how to apply to become an owner builder.

    When do you need a permit?

    Before you do anything, any construction work needs a building permit. Start with this basic guide:

    1. Get familiar with the VBA's guide to building and planning permits

    2. Talk to your private building surveyor to check when you need a building permit. We don't issue building permits so your private building surveyor will guide you through the process and fees. There are some exemptions to needing a permit, download:

      Building permits and other exemptions

      download
    3. Check if you need a planning permit before getting a building permit.

    4. Check if you need other permits approvals from us, for example:

      • asset protection or hoarding permits
      • drainage permits
      • build over easement
      • report and consents for works outside regulation
      • septic tank permits
      • food preparation permits.

      And remember - do not carry out any works until you've got all your approvals and permits in place.

    What happens if you don't get a building permit?

    You need to have your building permit prior to undertaking building work. If you carry out works without a permit, enforcement action may be taken and significant penalties may apply.

    How much does it cost?

    Fees for the building permit will be charged by your private building surveyor.

    For potential council associated costs, view our full list of fees.

    Popular building guides

    We've prepared a few guides on some of our more popular building works:

    Fences
    Swimming pools and spas
    Build safe and sustainable properties
    Report and Consents (including 29A)
    Asset protection
    Septic tanks

    Birds in Manningham

    Birds are an important part of our local ecosystem. They pollinate our plants and spread seeds across the landscape. Some birds help to keep our insect, rodent and spider populations low, and others fish in our creeks and the Yarra River.

    KoalaSpot

    Get involved in spotting Koalas in Manningham!

    Koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) are an icon species in Manningham, living up in our tall Eucalyptus trees, but they're listed as vulnerable by the IUCN and their population is on the decline! We need your help to keep track of them along our rivers and creeks, with our KoalaSpot program, you can get involved in finding Koalas across Manningham.

    Koalas are arboreal marsupials, meaning that they live up in the treetops and they bear live young in a pouch. They are herbivores and love to munch on Eucalyptus leaves, which are full of water, especially leaves from River Red Gums (Eucalyptus camaldulensis), which are found across Manningham. Their closest living relatives are Wombats and they are a species endemic to Australia, meaning that they're only found here. For thousands of years, Koalas were utilized by Indigenous Australians in Victoria. These beautiful creatures are threatened by development, resource harvesting and climate change (through bushfires and drought). This program will help us to understand how their population is changing, and where in Manningham they're inhabiting.

    How rates are calculated
    … your general rates and what other charges are included on your Valuations and Rates Notice. Rates and valuations … …

    Rates are our primary means of raising revenue to pay for all the services we provide. Rate payments are your investment in services and infrastructure for the Manningham community.

    We then divide this amount by the total value of the properties within our municipality. This amount changes every year.

     

    General Rates

    The formula for calculating your General Rates is:

    Capital Improved Value x Rate in the dollar = General Rates

     

    For a property where the Capital Improved Value is $1,270,000 the calculations would be:

    Capital Improved Value

    $1,270,000

    Rate in the dollar

    $0.00148199

    Calculation

    $1,270,000 x $0.00148199 = $1,882.10

    If you own property in another area and wonder why some rates are more or less than others, this is because each council has different budgetary requirements for:

    • capital works
    • proposed works
    • ongoing costs to maintain services in the local government area.

     

    Other charges on your rates notice

    In addition to the to your general rates levy, your rates notice will also include a:

    • waste services charge
    • State Government fire services property levy
    • any overdue rates (arrears) from previous years.

     

    What is rate capping?

    The State Government has capped rate increases at 1.75 per cent for 2022/2023 and we have elected to apply this 1.75 per cent increase rather than seek an exemption from the cap.

    It is important to remember that the cap of 1.75 per cent applies to the overall rate revenue raised by the council and not each individual property. Most properties will experience rate increases that are slightly higher or lower than 1.5 per cent. If your Valuation has either increased or decreased more than the average, it is likely you will see a rate increase lower or higher than 1.5 per cent.

    The Men's Table - Celebrating Men's Health Week
    … the community as a whole. We’ll also provide details on how to join a Men’s Table for those men interested in joining. Whats On … The Men's Table - Celebrating Men's Health Week …

    Join The Men’s Table for an evening of food and laughter in celebration of Men's Health Week.

    What can you expect from the evening?

    • Food (included in the ticket price)
    • Laughter
    • Camaraderie
    • Connection
    • Did we mention food and laughter?
    • And hear what is happening in your community to prioritise men’s health, not just in Men’s Health Week but all year round. 

    Hear from The Men’s Table, a men’s peer support group that meets at The Grand Hotel over dinner once a month to share openly about their lives, their challenges, their highs and lows with a group of like-minded men.

    No membership fee, just the cost of your meal each month.

    This event is proudly supported by Manningham City Council and Aquarena Aquatic and Leisure Centre.

    About the Men's Table

    The Men’s Table creates a unique environment for men to share openly about their lives with other men.

    The Men’s Table creates a sense of belonging, community, peer support and camaraderie that is lacking for many men, even for some who already have a group of mates.

    The Men’s Table began in 2011 with 12 men who have met once a month for dinner and has since become a national charity and grown to 59 tables across Australia.

    This evening will give you an insight into what it is like to be part of a Men’s Table and how it benefits the community as a whole. We’ll also provide details on how to join a Men’s Table for those men interested in joining.
