More than 80 members of the Hobsons Bay community marched on Tuesday, April 9, in support of Techno Park residents currently at threat of eviction by Hobsons Bay council.
Organiser and long-time resident of Techno Park, Matt Robinson, said the peaceful march was a huge success.
“It was really good, the overall outcome was great,” he said.
“The people who were there were really strong supporters and a lot of them had been to our first rally six months ago so it was good to see them again.”
After some speeches the group began the march, chanting their ‘Save Techno Park’ song from Logan Reserve to the council chambers.
Resident Lara Week said the family friendly march asked council to recognise their rights.
“What has been clear in this time is how much our local community is behind us,” she said.
“People have just been absolutely sickened to see the way that the council has attempted to evict people from their own homes and not be transparent about why.”
