What's happening in and around Templestowe

The following are links to items relating to Templestowe and the surrounding area.

Doncaster

MANNINGHAM Mayor Charles Pick has quashed suggestions Ruffey Lake Park could be restricted to an on-lead-only park.

ALMOST $36.5 million has been earmarked for fixing and building up Manningham in the next year, with the Doncaster Community Hub given the largest slice of the council's draft budget.

MANNINGHAM residents face a 4.9 per cent rate rise next year to pay for projects such as the Doncaster community hub, the Aquarena upgrade and a graffiti "rapid response team".

Manningham

MANNINGHAM'S health and community services receive substantially less funding than its neighbouring cities, new State Government figures show.

Manningham Council's introduction of the solar hot water systems proposal in 2009 generated a certain level of interest however; the overall success of the implementation of such a program is under question.

Templestowe

YOUNG starlet Rebecca Asha is leaving her humble home in Templestowe in search of fame and success in Hollywood.

A man murdered outside his home had lived in fear of his girlfriend's ex-lover who assaulted him six months earlier, an inquest has heard.
