Thank you to all who have signed thus far!
City of Casey city planning acting manager Kathryn Seirlis has made a comment in Cranbourne Star News which shows how much we need to keep making our voice heard.
Council will commence preparation of a Master Plan for the parkland surrounding the Ercildounde Heritage building in early 2019.
“As part of the Master Plan, Council will consult with the community regarding their suggestions for this property,” she said.
“The property holds large historical importance as it is one of the remaining farmhouses from the nineteenth century and has associations with the local Hall family, who established a model dairy farm in Cranbourne West.”
“It’s hoped that throughout the process of developing a Master Plan, Council can determine a future for this site that is beneficial for all and will consider recommended projects through the annual budget process,” she said.
If we keep putting the pressure on, our hope is that Wolfdene will honour their original advertising and actively contribute to restoration efforts and creation of a valuable community facility.
Continued support of this petition will also communicate loud and clear to Casey Council that local residents are keenly interested in contributing to a Master Plan which will see the heritage homestead and surrounding property revitalised into a functioning community facility.
We also want to make it clear to Council members that this issue is of significant importance to their constituents and that they should lend their full support to seeing restoration works get funding and actually take place.
