ANOTHER YEAR!!!! AND MORE MEETINGS!!!

Monday 21st January 2013 at 7:15 pm the North Richmond and Districts Community Action Association Inc. (NRDCAA) will hold it’s first meeting for the year at the North Richmond Community Centre, William Street ,North Richmond.

Your Committee hope that you all had a safe and enjoyable Christmas and New Year break.

On behalf of the NRDCAA membership and the community the committee invited the 3 new Hawkesbury City Councillors:  Mary Lyons- Buckett, Patrick Connolly and Michael Creed to address our first meeting in 2013 and asked them to address the following issues:

1)            Their 2 major goals for residents and ratepayers west of the river in 2013.

2)            Their commitment to implement the “Hawkesbury Strategic Plan 2010-2030” as adopted by Hawkesbury City Council.

3)            How they will represent residents’ and ratepayers’ interests as contained in the Local Government Act 1993 Division 3 Section 232 sub-clause (2), to ensure that their interests are paramount.

To date only Councillor Mary Lyons- Buckett has agreed to come and address this meeting. The other 2 were offered the opportunity to indicate when they would be available but to date have chosen not to indicate their possible availability. They and ALL councillors have been given a standing invitation to attend any of our meetings .

We have had a reply regarding the Heritage listing of the “Keyline” properties and that will be discussed.

Please make the effort to come and encourage your family, friends and neighbours to come too. If you have any matters of local concern that you feel should be discussed and possible action taken then please come and voice them.

Of course there will be a cuppa, bikkies, a raffle and good company!!  I wouldn’t miss it for quids and neither should you!!!
