I've been following the Moorabool Council EV charger situation for years(!) now as am a rate payer and have heard of many proposals get shot down to the point I'd completely given up on it happening here due to the ignorance of the councillors and small minded insular politics that goes on. Yeah, I'm frustrated but can't see anything at all happening until the deadwood moves on or the pressure becomes too much. Seems like active opposition as the proposals would be no brainers, Moorabool surely one of the last LGAs to not have an EV charging station at all, even though Moorabool is adjacent to Melbourne and on a major corridor, be great to encourage people to stop hey? Yeah nah, keep driving...
The
only way I can see any progress is if a majority of gate keepers at council ie: individual councillors, feel enough pressure from the community. I've sent messages to them all making the case over the years, but if more do the same and there is a groundswell of want, we might see some action. Names and numbers so you can send them a message here:
