BELLBOWRIE NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH

About

Bellbowrie neighbours, working together to make our community safer.DescriptionNeighbourhood Watch is a 'Community Policing' program, supported by the Queensland Police Service. We operate as a group homes, divided into several zones, each under the support of a 'Zone Co-ordinator'. Each zone supports approx. 10 blocks, each comprising about 10 homes. Each block is supported by a 'Block Co-ordinator'. Residents are educated and encouraged to be alert for any suspicious or criminal activity in the area, and to report information to the block or zone co-ordinator, or to the police. Full details of the purpose and structure of Neighbourhood Watch, can be found at the Queensland Police Service, Community Policing page.Our group is operated by a group of dedicated volunteers, supported by our Police Liaison Officer. To check if your home lies within our area of concern, please check our map.Our Bellbowrie Police Beat officer, Senior Constable Leesa Richardson keeps us informed about any criminal activity or intelligence (concerning our area), which allows residents to be informed and take appropriate precautions to prevent themselves becoming victims of crime. Leesa can be contacted at the Police Beat on Ph: 3202 7355.The success of our group has been largely due to the large number of residents being actively involved over the years. If any one would like to become more actively involved in Neighbourhood Watch, they would be made very welcome.Ray RiceArea Co-ordinator

Also Margaret deWit writes...

Following the January flood event, Council have reviewed the draft Strategy for the Moggill/Bellbowrie District and have made changes to the extent of  the area to be classified as Low-medium Density Residential (LMR) around the Bellbowrie Shopping Centre.

The area to the north and to the south of the plaza (Birkin Rd and Sugarwood St) have been removed from the proposed LMR area (ie they will remain Low Residential). The area to the west of the plaza, on the western side of Moggill Road, will continue to be recommended for change to LMR.

The reviewed Strategy also clearly states that flooding will continue to inform all planning undertaken by Council, and that as new information about the types of flooding (river, creek, storm, overland flow, etc) come to light, Council will continue to use this to further inform planning outcomes.

An updated, reprinted Draft Strategy will be delivered to all residents and land owners shortly so keep an eye on your mail.
