Cr Katrina Rainsford
Southern Grampians Shire
My name is Katrina Rainsford, I am a councillor in Southern Grampians Shire. I’ve raised the issue of where we are heading with our landscapes and waterways, with our responses to climate change, carbon trading, carbon sinks, plantations a big issue in Western Victoria and we need to have better planning so we are not losing what we love, which is our landscapes, our beautiful red gums and our waterways and our waterfalls. Whilst we are drying out our landscape with plantations. So I want a bit of planning, I’ve approached the environment Minister, agricultural Minister and the planning Minister at this community forum on these issues, it’s been good.
