Your vote for a Greens councillor in 2024 is a vote for us all to be Healthy, Happy and Housed in Eurobodalla. These ideas are connected, it's easier to be healthy and happy if you are securely and affordably housed. A beautiful environment supports health and happiness.

 

Healthy

• Eurobodalla must take necessary actions to minimise harm from the ongoing effects of climate change. Council has a Climate Action Plan - we will ensure it is implemented.

•  We support a Level 4 hospital in Moruya. Council must keep a watching brief on the process and on usage of the Batemans Bay Urgent Care Clinic and Emergency facilities.

• We aim to improve access to health services including aged and disability service and we will work to tackle domestic and family violence.

​

Happy

• We will protect the natural beauty and biodiversity of our shire which contributes to the health and happiness of all our residents.

• We will advocate to State and Federal governments for improved mental health care.

• We will work to improve the quality of life for all residents and further develop an active vibrant community.

• Post referendum truth telling is necessary for all our health and happiness.​

​

Housed

• We will move to implement a Eurobodalla Affordable Housing Strategy.

• We will work with State and Federal Governments and local organisations to end local homelessness and deal with its causes: poverty, domestic violence and Health issues.

Economy
