He has indicated that residents from Newtown, Berhampore and Mt Cook are willing to support our submission. We haven\u2019t had long to prepare the submission and given it is due on Friday there won\u2019t be time to make a lot of changes. I therefore suggest letting people know that they can also send individual submissions if they have comments and suggestions \u2013 the deadline is this Friday, 9 May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The website link to the bus review is no longer current.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Norman<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Published as Issue No. 102 April 6, 2014 Community Gathers:&nbsp;On Sunday 17 local people attended the quarterly meeting of the Houghton Valley Progressive Association, joined by three city councillors.
