As part of my meet-and-greet sessions with residents this week, I have come up with an idea for an annual “Eco Expo” that would be held in Wells Street in the Frankston CBD for a day. This event is intended to showcase sustainable living and would feature stalls, free activities and keynote speeches from those ‘in the know’.
With climate change becoming a real issue, our local community will be the first to be affected. The Eco Expo is a way to introduce sustainable living to the community and get some ideas forming in people’s minds!
Have you any ideas for Frankston?
About Me
- Jaymz Stevens
- I am a 26 year old student, studying Primary Education at Monash University's Peninsula campus. I live in Frankston with my wife and two young children and am the endorsed Greens candidate for South-West Ward. Council's decisions must take into account the future impact that they may have on the world of our children. This requires Council's full commitment to honesty and transparency. If elected, I will endeavour to meet local community groups to ensure that Council hears the needs of residents. I aim to advocate better public transport in Frankston but oppose a bypass through Pines Flora & Fauna Reserve and a new Marina complex. I provisionally support infrastructure works easing the Frankston Freeway bottleneck and an environmentally sound Safe Boat Harbour. I will provide a voice for young people and families, advocate for better family & social services, and ensure a Council with a social and environmental conscience.
