TVAG is calling another Public Meeting to provide advice to residents and Hills visitors on how to best focus their objections, and to show community unity in our objection to this inappropriate development proposal. The ultimate goal is to convince McDonald’s that Tecoma is an inappropriate location for a 24/7 take-away business as proposed, and that the Hills need to remain unique as a place to live and to which to escape.
The Shire of Yarra Ranges has posted notices on the proposed site for McDonald's in Tecoma indicating that they have received the application details from McDonald's and the final stages of the battle have begun. The application documentation provided by McDonald's is now available for viewing at Shire Offices including the Link office in Upwey. People are encouraged to view this documentation and realise the impact that this development will have on the Hills.
McDonald's plan to operate 24 hours per day and 7 days per week, thus there will be no respite from the the noise or smells emanating from this establishment. Each night will be lit up by their advertising signs and car park lighting, no more walking through a Hills village and looking at the stars above the surrounding hills.
