Working Issues and Projects

---

This page will inform members and the public of the current major issues coming to the attention of the BDCA. 

Warrenheip Street Upgrade

It was announced in May that significant State Government funding has been granted to make improvements to the Warrenheip Street shopping strip.  BDCA has had this as a priority for some time, and its advocacy was significant. This project will go to community consultation before final plans are drawn and BDCA will provide major input to the consultation

Planning Applications

BDCA has currently lodged an objection to the granting of a planning permit for the development of a tourist facility (the "Buninyong Barrels") at Yendon No. 2 Road.  We understand that this application has now been called to Council, so no decision permitting the development can be made before the new Council has considered it.

Off-Lead Dog Park

Council has allocated funding to establish an off-lead dog park at James Reserve.  BDCA advocated for this through 2019.
