Glen Eira’s NMAG wants Tuckers’ Cr. Staikos
Published 4 months, 3 weeks ago in Sport & Leisure.
The original of this email sent to 9 Councillors, the Glen Eira CEO and the Council’s spokesperson remains outstanding as a Public Question put to the last Council Meeting. Mr Magee is still awaiting a response from Council. At the last Council Meeting Cr Robilliard put forward an Urgent item of Business that Cr Staikos be appointed to the Steering Committee as Feldman replacement. It was disallowed as Urgent, and it is rumoured that Mayor Tang, representing Rosstown Ward wants to be appointed instead. I believe it is appropriate for a Tucker Ward Councillor and one who has worked with the people be appointed for the Steering Committee. Mayor Tang should be busier representing Glen Huntly’s interests if he has spare time!

Dear Steven
The members of The Northern Memorial Action Group have become concerned that, with the resignation of Cr David Feldman, the Pool Steering Committee will be without a representative from Tucker Ward.
We were happy that, as a resident of Tucker Ward David Feldman knew how important this treasured asset was to his community.
The Northern Memorial Action Group asks that Cr Nick Staikos replace David Feldman on the Pool Steering Committee. He is also a resident of Tucker Ward and as he is in touch with his community’s feelings, he understands as David did, the importance of the memorial pool to the local community.
I thank you for receiving this letter and hope that the council understands that Tucker Ward needs a voice on this committee.
Yours sincerely
Jim Magee

Correction: Mr Jim Magee acknowledges he didn’t actually address the letter as a public question but had hoped its intentions would have been understood and addressed by the Glen Eira Council, nonetheless.
Perhaps another letter may do the trick asking specifically for a Tucker Ward representative that has worked for and with the community and has a very good understanding of their needs.
