In 2015, as an ordinary community member, I organised a successful community campaign to get Coles to clean up their big vacant lot on Guildford Road (near KFC), including removing the graffiti and replacing the rusty fences. For several months, I continued to nudge Coles until they completed all the works.
But that’s not enough – it’s still a wasteland in the middle of our town centre, and it devalues our suburb.
I am intending to explore all options to encourage Coles to do something with the site.
