We are transitioning to a new Planning Application platform. As a result, the existing My Mount Alexander system will be unavailable from 5.00pm Thursday 12 November. Our new planning application platform will be available from 9.00am Monday 16 November. We apologise for the inconvenience.
The Maldon Transfer Station has limited hours and services. It will reopen for green waste only on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, 9.00am-11.00am until 15 November. The Castlemaine Transfer Station will continue to operate as normal. We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
The Tarrangower Cactus Control Group Inc. (TCCG) consists of Landcare volunteers dedicated to the eradication of Wheel Cactus (Opuntia robusta).
We provide advice and assistance to property owners and community members, to encourage and motivate everyone to control this noxious weed.
Our volunteers, “Cactus Warriors”, are available to discuss and demonstrate best practice control techniques and provide free loans of equipment.
In collaboration with Parks Victoria, we hold informal community field days to help control Wheel Cactus infestations in Maldon Historic Reserve and provide an opportunity for volunteer community members to assist in preserving our native environment. These field days also provide an opportunity to meet neighbours and form local neighbourhood action groups.
