1. This was to be expected in a growth region but so sad to witness the building of Housing Developments that move in & carelessly demolish an environment with complete disregard. We are not a suburb & yet this once lovely green field dotted with Eucalyptus & indigenous plants is quickly being marketed as ‘close to the a new Aldi’ & other conveniences. What happened to fresh air & open green spaces? Why is the MRS Council allowing such congested urbanisation to continue & where is the additional Freeway entrance for excess traffic? Where is the waterway & tree protection monitor & what has happened to caring, environmentally conscious infrastructure? A dirt mound & low rise fence at the freeway side is really short of attractive. We have a huge resource problem & this is being shamefully overlooked, making way for economic compromises. Very sad. Where we used to be a wonderfully green & popularly treed regional town that offered a variety of shops & good food we are quick becoming characterless with a whole lot of litter to spread around. We have overheard residents from further afield glad that it’s happening to Gisborne & not impacting on Macedon or Riddells or Woodend? From experience it is perhaps just a matter of time.. unless we all stand up & say “No” to the further careless urbanisation of our region.
