You shouldn't have to chase the council for basic infrastructure maintenance. Vote 1 - Mark Donnellon #walk #bicycle #path #cargobike #ebike
PARKING. The council has to do something. How do you want to see supply/demand of parking addressed? #basics #urbanplanning #cars #transport #bus
Taroona! Such a great community of people! My daughter and I joined the Taroona Environment Network to work on protecting and mulching an area undergoing revegetation which was thick with blackberry not long ago.
Out with the local cold water swimming groups braving 14c 🥶 water to celebrate the end of winter! #swim #salty #community #club #health
Great day for a ride! Heading to work in the city after a meeting in Kingston. Cheers to everyone for all the friendly waves! #cargobike #transport #green #cycling #ebike
Not the most glamorous part of campaigning, but we make it fun! Want to join? Send me a DM for what's coming up 😁 #happy #politics #election #party #drumandbass
Two great mobility machines spotted in central Kingston. One carries 4, the other 40. Both very efficient. Vote for transport options in Kingborough. Vote for a Green Kingborough Council. #cargobike #spicycurry #bus #408 #transport
Wait, what? What's contaminating the water? No... and I just... omg. 🤢🦠 Thanks again to Blackmans Bay Community Association for further highlighting the issue this weekend gone, keep it up and we'll find a solution. #community #health #water #ocean #joke
A beautiful day to work in the Kingston Community Garden! Thanks to Arthur, Michelle, Angela, Liz, Bruce and more for the warm welcome and chats. We got a lot of work done in Arthur's bed, removing weeds and huge hops roots ready to replant with lots of insect attracting flowering plants.
Well done to the Blackmans Bay Community Association for organising such an enjoyable, positive and high visibility campaign to keep Blackmans Bay water quality on the political agenda. Keep an eye out for some great media coverage! #community #protest #swim #cleanwater #ocean
Thanks to Taroona residents for coming out to last night's Meet the Candidates event! It was so great chatting to you all and catching up with many familiar faces 😁 #community #election #kingborough #greens
Vote to keep and protect our unique wildlife. Vote for a Green Kingborough Council. There are only 5 remaining species of monotreme (egg laying mammal) in the world. 4 species of echidna and the platypus. #platypus #cute #australian #monotreme

Safer roads, more paths, secure bike parking. You can vote for it! Vote 1 Mark Donnellon and The Greens 2 - 4 for Kingborough Council. #tern #terngsd #cargobike #ebike #electric
Vote for more transport options! Local councils decide whether walking or riding is a viable option and how easy it is to get to and park at a bus stop. Vote for a Green Kingborough Council for cheaper, healthier travel. #terngsd #tern #gsd #cargobike #ebike
Good talks with Manohar and Bonnie on my regular bus to work from Kingston! Hearing about the challenges of running large community events and how difficult it is to address problematic trees on your property.
The new pump track is nearly ready! Kingborough Council purchased this modular pump track to try and fill the gap made by the closure of the mountain bike park at the sports centre, and it looks like it will be ready soon! #community #kingborough #park #bicycle #bmx
Secure bike storage — where's Kingborough's? Popular bus stops and employment areas are missing secure storage for commuters and staff. That gap can be the difference between another car on our roads and someone choosing a better way to get around.
BUILD👏 A 👏CROSSING👏 Someone from Margate sent me a photo of them crossing this road with a pram. The Meredith's owner confirmed: 5-20 people walk to Meredith's, including running this gauntlet, every day. Vote 1 - Mark Donnellon for Kingborough Councillor #walking #costofliving #ebike #pram
A Green Kingborough Council will prioritise cheaper, healthier travel: Safer walking and cycling opportunities, better bus links. Where else could plenty of people walk or ride a bike if it were safe? #walking #cycling #publictransport #health #ebike
Fabulous doorknocking weather and chats on Sunday with residents living below the Kingborough Sport Centre. We heard from people about basketball court demand, a pool, keeping rate rises down and health services. #listentothepeople #doorknock #community
