RESIDENTS have been invited to give their views on outdoor burning, incinerators and chimneys on the Mornington Peninsula.

Mornington Peninsula Shire’s draft amenity local law has already received feedback from more than 2000 people and residents can comment at three community meetings: Tuesday 18 July, 10am, Capel Sound Community Hub; Thursday 20 July, 10am, Merricks General Store; and Sunday 23 July, 9am, Bittern Market.

The mayor Cr Steve Holland said the council had a legislative obligation to review and prepare a new community amenity local law every 10 years. 

“It empowers us to respond to local issues and protect public and private space, as well as our community’s health and safety,” he said.

Comments can also be made until 2 August online at: mornpen.vic.gov.au/locallawreview
