Have your say on nature strip plantings

 

Mount Alexander Shire has put out draft guidelines for what we can and can’t plant on our nature strips.  

This is the link:  https://shape.mountalexander.vic.gov.au/urban-nature-strip-guidelines

 

The guidelines are quite restrictive about what residents can do.  Without a permit you can only plant grasses and  strappy plants (native or exotic).  With a permit plants can be no higher than 60cm and there are various other restrictions such as the use of spiky or prickly plants is prohibited.   The deadline for submissions is 17th March. 

 

Have your say!
