The journey so far...
To kickstart Sustainable Neighbourhoods in the Jewells Area, all residents of Jewells, Floraville and Belmont North received the Sustainable Neighbourhood survey in the post in late February 2015. The survey provided an opportunity for residents to have a say about the things they feel are important in the community and identify ideas for community action.
A community workshop was then held in May 2015. At the workshop some excellent results were achieved. Participants planned for the future by identifying local visions, values, and actions. Key areas of interest were preserving and protecting native plants, animals and green spaces, like Belmont Wetlands.
The results of the survey and workshop have now been summarised and used to develop our draft Sustainable Neighbourhood Action Plan. We celebrated the completion of this process with a community event in August 2016.
