Maribyrnong Reserve dog coursing debate rages on
A letter to the editor outlines council disagreements over dog coursing on Maribyrnong Reserve. The writer, B Randall, argues the reserve should generate revenue for ratepayers and criticizes the council’s refusal, noting the grounds cost about £4000 and questioning lack of use. He supports allowing owners and trainers to operate for income, with benefits for local roads and amusements and urges clear council rules for the committee’s activities.
