Deputation of Clerics Opposes Maribyrnong Dog Racing
A church-led deputation urged Braybrook Shire Council to refuse the Dog Owners and Trainers Association lease for the Maribyrnong reserve. Rev Judkins and Rev Bennett argued dog racing harms community morals, discourages families, and invites gambling. Council voted to reject the application amid concerns over social impact and reserve use.
