Community asking for more investment in Flat Bush and Ormiston

On Monday the Bhartiya Samaj Charitable Trust hosted local candidates as part of their regular seniors meeting.

It was a pretty wet and wild outside but the reception inside the Old Flat Bush School Hall was warm and welcoming. We were treated to music, group exercises and a delicious lunch.

Candidates were invited to introduce themselves and their priorities, followed by an opportunity for questions.

There were two big issues that came out of our discussions:

  1. Transport and road safety: especially around the Flat Bush / Ormiston area and more specifically at the Intersection of Murphy’s Road and Redoubt Road.

  2. Flat Bush Library and Community Centre: despite it’s massive population growth, this area still doesn’t’ have a community centre or library.

Both of these are priorities for me and hopefully the community’s wishes are heard by other candidates (even those who didn’t attend).
