Petition

Petition for more public toilets in Coburg.

Over a number of years now, governments have been deliberately refusing to invest in public toilets. When Melbourne's public transport was privatised, toilets at unstaffed stations were locked. The Coburg shops had a public toilet block shut and replaced with two Exeloo unisex public toilets. 

Now there are not enough toilets to service an increasing population and they are rarely cleaned. People with medical conditions and parents of small children find the lack of public toilets really difficult. Some people with medical conditions have stopped going to the Coburg shops because of the lack of public toilets.

People also hate the Exeloos because they are usually so smelly and dirty.

There is now a petition circulating calling for more public toilets in Coburg. Contact me on 0417 583 664 or <sbolton@moreland.vic.gov.au> if you would like a copy of the petition.
