"Baw Baw Shire is one of the fastest growing areas in the State. Neighbourhood character is vitally important to so many residents and much has been lost already. We need to make sure we maintain the neighbourhood character of our townships as well as accommodating growth.
What do you want to see our towns look like? People need to speak up now and have their say.
These guidelines will shape the way Warragul and Drouin will look forever. We need to hear from our community and gather their feedback on the proposed designs. Interested community members should write to us or go online and make a submission ahead of the open briefing. Your views are needed – before its too late!"
