North Canberra Community Council

Update – NOTICE & AGENDA for NCCC AGM 2011

Date: Wednesday, 16 November 2011 Time: 7:30 Venue: ACT Sport House, 100 Maitland, Street Hackett Our guest speakers for the 2011 NCCC AGM will be Sherry McArdle-English and Frank van de Loo, who are primary producers (truffle farming and vineyard) at the northern end of Majura Valley. They will be talking about their experiences on the land and opportunities to expand primary production in Majura Valley. This is a topic dear to the heart of NCCC as it feeds into local healthy food production, and has the potential to make the ACT less reliant on food imports.

Traffic Lights in Watson

Recently a resident contacted the NCCC querying the placement of pedestrian lights near the intersection of Antill and Knox Streets which he considered were in the wrong spot by some 20 meters. The observation was that few pedestrians will use the lights, the lights will not reduce traffic speeds on Antill St and hence the lights were poorly planned and a waste of money.

Design options workshop session – Campbell Section 5 Master Plan Project

The Land Development Agency (LDA) invites residents, business owners and community groups from Campbell to have their say on the future of Campbell Section 5. Campbell Section 5 is ACT Government owned land located on the northern edge of Constitution Avenue and east of Anzac Parade. Consultation is ongoing, and the LDA is working with the local community to design a master plan for the future of the site.
