Mullum Creek receives the prestigious nationally recognised EnviroDevelopment Certification

Mullum Creek is delighted to announce that we have achieved official EnviroDevelopment certification from the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA).

EnviroDevelopment recognises environmentally sustainable developments which have been carefully designed to protect the environment and use resources responsibly. The certification is awarded to projects that display exceptional standards in the areas of ecosystems management, waste, energy, materials, water and community living, with Mullum Creek being only the third project in Victoria to achieve all 6 elements.

Having been recognised as upholding the stringent standards set by the expert panel of experienced ecologists, town planners, engineers, architects, lawyers, economists and developers, Mullum Creek is set to be a showcase example of what can be done with creative and careful planning.

This highly coveted award will be officially presented at the Mullum Mullum Community Trail Event to be held this Sunday (event details below).

Mullum Mullum Trail Event – This Sunday

To celebrate the completion of the Mullum Mullum Trail extension, the Manningham Council is inviting the community to take part in an official opening and walk, to be held this Sunday 22 June at 11:00am.

The 1.7 km trail walk will begin at Tindals Road, leading through to Park Road Donvale. After a ‘Welcome to Country’ from the Wurrundjeri Community, the proceedings will be introduced by Ken McInnes, Historian and Member of Friends of Mullum Mullum. This will be followed by the official opening of the trail by the Mayor Cr Jim Grivokostopoulos. Mullum Creek will also be honoured by Hon Ryan Smith MP, who will present the project with its 6-leaf EnviroDevelopment accreditation.

Steve Mathews, environmentalist and co-owner of the Mullum Creek property, will lead the Mullum Mullum Trail Event walk, pointing out areas of interest along the way.

The morning will conclude with a barbecue organised by the Kiwanis Club (north side of bridge, 500 metres from Park Road) commencing at 12noon.

The Mathews family have lived on the property since the late 1950s, and thanks to careful design and planning have been able to contribute nine hectares of land to the Linear Park as part of the project’s masterplan.

The Mathews family home at Mullum Creek will be open to the public and those participating in the walk to enjoy light refreshments. Information regarding Mullum Creek and the Stage 1 land release will be available. Please feel free to drop by after the walk.
