“Our local shopping centres in Canberra are deteriorating, particularly in the areas of cleanliness, parking, access, lighting and safety,” Mrs Jones said.
“Local shops are the heart of the Canberra community. Local shops need to meet the basic needs and services required by residents in their area. Local shops provide support and a sense of community, particularly modern mothers who have so much to fit into the day. ”
Mrs Jones claims local shopping centres have been neglected and will move a motion for the Assembly to take action in improving the maintenance of local shops.
