Support from Similar Campaigns

From Andrew Dixon
100 Waverley Road Action Group

“Could I ask you to pass on our best wishes and support to the meeting tonight.

Our 100 Waverley Rd Action Group was formed to oppose an application by McDonalds Australia for a family restaurant at the corner of Waverley Rd and Burke Rd in East Malvern.

We had 700 initial objectors and about 200 people gave donations (some of $500 or so) that supported our representation and a traffic expert witness at VCAT for 5 days in December 2008 and late January 2009. (We originally budgeted for $9,500.00.)

We are hoping that the VCAT decision will be announced by next week.

Please let the meeting and your new Working Group know I am happy to support your group with documents and advice.”
