The VVRA aims to create a healthy, clean and well-functioning suburb. To achieve this we need the residents to be active and work together to improve the area and deal with problems we may face. We are a diverse community that all want a healthy, green and sustainable place to call our home.
Some of these issues include our aging and often inadequate power and water infrastructure, illegal building, litter and environmental protection, traffic, noise, and security concerns. We need to find a balance between the need for ongoing development and the rights of residents.
The VVRA is a not for profit association (NPO) representing the residents of Vorna Valley in matters concerning our suburb. The VVRA committee is made up of residents, all volunteers, who would like to participate actively in improving things for the community as a whole.
The benefit of belonging to a Residents’ Association is immeasurable. By working collectively to represent the interests of the suburb, we can do a great deal to present a united voice on issues of concern, liaise with local business, relevant city and law enforcement agencies, protect the suburb from predatory development and illegal land uses, enhance environmental wellbeing and build a greater sense of community.
