The document outlines the agenda and issues discussed at a family day event for the Julianstown and District Residents Association in 2008. It summarizes the key topics as follows: Traffic volume through Julianstown exceeds capacity and is a major issue, despite projected population growth. Noise levels from traffic are already at dangerous levels but the council has not taken action. The village aims to promote community involvement in heritage, wildlife and design issues to improve livability while advocating for a traffic bypass. Future goals include expanding community networks and skills to better engage in planning processes.
