Lilydale Street 11
The Main Street of Lilydale has been selected by the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects as the site of the inaugural landscape architecture "ideas" competition - STREET 11.
The competition will challenge the traditional views of how we use our streets and towns and provide creative ideas which can be considered in a future streetscape study. These "ideas" will address some of the key issues of Lilydale Main Street, such as how pedestrians, visitors, businesses, cars, cyclists,buses and trains interreact in this space.
To help competition enterants with their designs, we need your views on what Lilydale should look and feel like! What are your aspirations for the Main Street of Lilydale? Your thoughts and opinions may end up being incorporated into the winning design! HAVE YOUR SAY NOW!

Places to go, people to visit on high fire risk days
Living in a bushfire prone area comes with some risks and responsibilities. One of those responsibilities is having a bushfire plan that includes a range of things to do on high fire risk days such as activities where to go for the day, where to stay overnight if necessary, and need to conisder pets and all household residents (children, older family members, family members with a disability, house guests etc).
To assist people living in fire prone areas in their decision-making, Yarra Ranges is seeking your assistance in compiling a list of activites and places to go on high fire risk days. The list of activities will be published on Council's website.
Whether you live in a bushfire prone area, or not, we want to hear your suggestions. This survey will provide the opportunity to share with the community your ideas and assist people at the same time.

Your Library - Now and into the future
Yarra Ranges is developing a five year Library Strategy and Action Plan which will be important in shaping the future of our libraries. Not only do we want to hear what you like or don't like about your library service but we also want to know how you think your library will need to change in the future.
With people's lifestyles and technology changing at a fast rate, how do we make sure libraries are still meeting the needs of the community? Your feedback is important and we encourage you to think creatively and express your ideas openly through this online forum. You can also see what other people have said and decide if you agree or not with their thoughts.
