Kalkallo community safety
Mr ONDARCHIE (Northern Metropolitan) (18:13): (1914) My adjournment matter this evening is for the Minister for Police. Kalkallo residents are concerned about dangerous hooning and illegal dumping of commercial and building rubbish in their new suburb. I want to thank those Kalkallo residents who replied to my recent community survey. Kalkallo is such a diverse and wonderful community, with many Victorians building new homes. They are excited about their new area, but they want a safer and cleaner suburb in which to raise their families. There is hardly any police coverage in the Kalkallo area. To protect my residents the action I seek is for the government to provide extra police patrols to better deter hooning on Toyon Road and Dwyer Street, the illegal dumping of rubbish along Yucca Road and Pine Grove—to protect the Merri Creek near Bells Avenue—and antisocial behaviour near the wetlands on Bells Avenue. Kalkallos really care for their community; so should Dan’s government.
