HOONS who churned up a Cranbourne nature strip opened up the discussion at a Casey council meeting.
A nature strip on Stawell Street was left battered, muddy and churned up after hoons raced across it, terrifying the women residing inside the corner property.
Phyllis Patterson, who lives on Stawell Street, said it has been an ongoing issue at the corner block for several years.
“A lot of hoons go around that corner tearing along Cameron Street and they overtake the cars turning right into Stawell Street,” Ms Patterson said.
The recent incident on Stawell Street sparked Casey councillor Amanda Stapledon’s interest and the matter was brought up at a Casey council meeting on Tuesday 6 September.
Cr Stapledon raised a notice of motion to call on officers to find safe and acceptable measures to deter cars from driving over nature strips and performing burn outs which cost ratepayers’ money to repair.
