Driving the future

THE Wonthaggi Business Association (WBA) has heaps of plans in store before this year is through.
Members of the WBA recently met with the Bass Coast Shire Council to discuss the issue of parking.
Some businesses owners are concerned with the 15 minute limitations on public car parks and would prefer to have hour limitations instead.
“We discussed how the parking issue would be monitored and invite the business owners to take part in community input,” the association’s Hannah Quilford said.
“We will review the problem areas and are happy to hear any suggestions.”
The WBA has held two Make It Bake It markets and each has been successful.
The markets are held on the second Sunday of the month. The WBA is looking for more stallholders, particularly those who sell fresh produce.
Cakes, soaps, olive oils, ready to eat foods and nut butters have been very popular at the markets so far.
The WBA has been working with Tourism Victoria and VicRoads to fix the signs on the Bass Highway.
“We’ve been talking to VicRoads about bigger signs, particularly for the Wonthaggi State Coal Mine,” Ms Quilford said.
“We’ve heard complaints because the signs aren’t big enough so we are really pushing for it.”
The association also ran a successful loyalty program recently.
