As previously outlined, all Advisory/Management Committees of Council are opened for new appointments following Council elections each two years. Council has made appointments to the Armadale Settlers Common Management Committee and I am pleased to welcome two new members – Jacqui Thomas and David Ward. Both will bring a high degree of enthusiasm and their own expertise to the Committee. Previous members who re-nominated are to continue as very valuable team members. The Committee contains members with a diverse range of skills and we are lucky to have a very balance team.
We do have a couple of vacancies available if anyone wishes to join us. If you are interested in becoming a member, please contact me on telephone 9497 3469
DIEBACK FUNDING
Funding has been acquired to further develop dieback stations in the Settlers Common.
The purpose of the dieback stations is to provide facilities for walkers to brush-down their footwear in order to contain the spread of dieback throughout the reserve. The new funding will provide stations within the eastern portion of the Settlers Common.. It is i
mportant that we all assist in the attempts to contain dieback. All those using the Common are requested to stop for a minute or two, use the seats and brushesprovided and brush down your footwear.The positive step of cleaning our footwear will have an ongoing impact in reducing the spread of dieback. Please help.
WALK TRAIL FUNDING
Council is to embark on improving access to the eastern portion of the Settlers Common
and Churchman Bushland in the vicinity of Churchman Brook Road. Also, additional
interpretive trails are planned in the Settlers Common. The provision of wheelchair access
is seen as an important part of this project. More information on this project will be
provided when at hand. An existing dieback hygiene station
