No McDonald’s in Mount Evelyn
After plans were submitted to Council just before Christmas last year to redevelop 19-23 Hereford Rd as a 24-hour McDonald’s (https://eplanning.yarraranges.vic.gov.au/Pages/XC.Track/SearchApplication.aspx?id=1456516), and a 108 place childcare centre (https://eplanning.yarraranges.vic.gov.au/Pages/XC.Track/SearchApplication.aspx?id=1456557), there has been a lot of debate online whether the restaurant is needed or wanted in our town.
A Facebook group has been formed for people wanting to object to the development. Although the applications on the Yarra Ranges Council are not yet open for advertising, and the childcare centre application is now waiting for further information from the applicant, residents are being encouraged to write their objections to Council.
If you have objections to the development and would like to join the No McDonalds in Mount Evelyn Facebook group, you can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/894669075297286
