Well, 2016 is upon us and it looks like being a busy one for the Tuggeranong Community Council. We should hear in March from the Murray Darling Basin Project people about what activities have been approved in the Tuggeranong Lake Catchment area to improve water quality and amenity in the area, so we no longer have smells in summer and we could paddle, swim and Triathlons might actually be held in Lake Tuggeranong.
Little or no landfill needed in the future! No such thing as waste but materials that can be recycled and actually bring income into the ACT economy! Wouldn’t that be great! Members of the Tuggeranong Community Council (TCC) have attended meetings of the new ACT Waste Feasibility Study, which aims at giving options to government on how to handle all waste generated or processed within the ACT over the next 10-50 years. The objective is to maximise recycling and reusing while minimising landfilling. This can’t come to soon for the people of Fadden who are currently suffering from recurring smells from the Mugga tip – a concern that needs to be looked into.

Interested in helping out with an activity around Lake Tuggeranong? Ring 0411161948 if you want to be involved in a revegetation activity around the Wanniassa inlet. The Tuggeranong Lake Carers (TLC) with the support of the Tuggeranong Community Council (TCC) are holding this event on Saturday 28 November from 8.30–11am. This is one of the few activities the TLC can organise around the Lake as the ongoing Lake closure is causing health concerns leading to us cancel some events on and around the Lake.
