What a season for home grown tomatoes! A bumper crop in 2023 - 2024 🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅 Looks like the crop will continue for another 7-8 weeks 😃

  At the last Unley Council election in 2018, mayor candidates Michael Hewitson and Dario Centrella swapped preferences and ran a 1 & 2 campaign. Michael won due to preferences from Dario. Take the time to read the latest leaflets by Hewitson and Centrella and wonder if this is the direction Unley should pursue. On the one hand there might be Michael’s extra tree canopy tax or Dario’s interesting dreams. Will they join up again this year? It would be a weird outcome and either could become mayor. They do make a very interesting duo.   I urge you to stop the nonsense. The only sensible choice is to Vote 1  Bob Schnell for Mayor of Unley I commit to not increasing the rates if you only have 1 or 2 trees. Under the Hewitson plan, your lawn, roses and small bushes do not count. Your property would need to be covered by evergreen trees higher than 3m. You will pay higher rates under Michael Hewitson’s plan. So make the smart choice and Vote 1  Bob Schnell   #Unley

    Today I was out door-knocking and letterboxing. The footpaths are terrible  😡 There are so many bad sections across Unley. Real trip hazards  Attached see pics of a really bad trip hazard. I found this hazard in the Ward where Michael Hewitson was a councillor a few years ago. And only recently there were new kerbs, but the footpath was not fixed. It seems that over the past 4 years, the condition of the footpaths has deteriorated.  It’s really woeful. I believe it is due to Unley Council focusing on trees and canopy and ignoring the basics like maintaining our footpaths. When I discovered the serious trip hazard, I imagined Mayor Michael Hewitson sitting in his parlour sipping his almond milk decaf latte coffee while he counted trees and the cost of $100,000s to fly aerial surveys to estimate the big tree canopies across Unley … all in pursuit of a dream to hike extra taxes (rates) for residents who do not have enough tree canopy on their property. Imagine how muc

   Such sad news about the death of Queen Elizabeth II. Whilst neither a staunch Monarchist nor Republican, as a mark of respect I did stop door knocking and posting on social media for a respectful period; until the Queen was interned in her Royal vault. It was really not a time for council candidates to intrude on Unley residents and ask for their votes. So, I re-start my campaign to be Mayor of Unley. It's time for a real change; a time to deliver better outcomes; a time for a new Mayor! a Mayor who will actually listen to you!!  Bob Schnell - candidate 4 Unley Mayor            #Unley   written&authorised by bob schnell 10 halmon avenue everard park  

  Sad news about the death of Queen Elizabeth II. As a mark of respect I will cease door knocking and posting on social media for a respectful period. At this time, people really do not want the intrusion of council candidates vying for votes. Bob Schnell - candidate 4 Unley Mayor written&authorised by bob schnell 10 halmon avenue everard park

 I was staggered by what I heard from an #Unley resident last night. The resident contacted an Unley Council elected member to complain about an issue in their street. The elected member was more concerned about getting the resident’s vote at the upcoming election, than listening to the complaint. It was a rather unpleasant exchange. What a sad saga 😡 The reality is that the elected member lost that family’s votes 👎 written&authorised by bob schnell 10 halmon avenue everard park
