Welcome

Thank you for taking the time to visit the Toowong Ward website. If you would like to contact me by email at any time, my email address is toowong.ward@ecn.net.au

I have developed this site so that members of our community can learn more about our local area and keep up to date with what's happening in our Ward. I also encourage you to use this site as a tool for communicating with me. On this website you can register for my mailing lists and send me your feedback via email.

We have two very important neighbourhood planning issues in the Ward at the moment:

TOOWONG/AUCHENFLOWER NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN
We have finished the 1st CPT meeting about the Vision and the 2nd CPT meeting about Precinct Intents and Development Options.
We are now working on the Renewal Strategy and intend to consult with the public on the draft in February 2010.
For the draft Vision and project timeframes and lots of other information click on above link.

DRAFT MILTON STATION NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN
I have a copy of the draft plan in my office, or you can click on the above link to see what is happening at the moment.

I want to make this site as relevant as possible, so please let me know if you feel that there is something of general interest that should be included or if I can be of assistance to you in any way.

Best wishes
Peter
