Olive trees on nature strips? ■ Residents of Kalorama Place, Thomastown have sent a petition requesting that Whittlesea City Council plant olive trees on the nature strips as done so in surrounding streets. A petition signed by 12 residents was due to be presented to the Council meeting scheduled to be held on Monday night (Nov. 21).
It is likely that Tthe trees along Kalorama Place will be reassessed by an independent arboricultural consultant, to determine their health and useful life expectancy. Admninistrators were expected to decide that there will be further site analysis carried out, to determine if there are any other planting opportunities in the local nature strips.

■ Could Kat Theophanous lose the traditional Labor seat of Northcote to the Greens, in a repeat of the November 2017 by-election? The Greens believe their candidate Campbell Gome has a strong chance of taking the innersuburban seat at this Saturday’s State Election. “Northcote was first contested at the 1927 election. It was a safe Labor seat for 90 years until being lost to the Greens at a November 2017 by-election,” said Anthony Green, ABC election analyst. “The Greens have finished second to Labor at the last five state elections with Labor's lead declining at each election.” The ALP has a 3.4 per cent margin, based on the 2018 results. The 11 candidates are Adrian Whitehead, Anastacia Ntouini (Freedom), Campbell Gome (Greens), Tim Oseckas (Animal Justice), Ken Larkin (Socialists), Anthony Cave (Liberal Deomocrats), Kat Theophanous (ALP), Kathrine Ashton (Family First), April Clarke (Reason), Stewart Todhunter (Liberal), Ashish Verma.
