Our New Constitution
We are excited to announce that our updated constitution was approved at the AGM on 28 November 2022. To view the new Constitution go to Constitution page here.
The Downer Community Association
The Downer Community Association was formed in 1985 (incorporated in 1987) to represent the interests of Downer residents on issues which affect our suburb and surrounding areas. These include local facilities, planning and traffic, development applications, changes to parks and streets, and issues which affect local communities, such as Downer Preschool and the proposed Goodwin independent living development.
A major focus of the Association is managing the Downer Community Centre. This is an ACT Government building, leased to the DCA at a peppercorn rent. The DCA rents rooms in the Centre to a large number of community groups. Rents are kept as low as possible to assist groups with limited funds to obtain facilities for their activities. Details of the Community Centre and the facilities available can be found on the separate Community Centre page.
Membership of the Downer Community Association is open to all residents of Downer, and there is no charge for membership. Membership forms are available here. If you provide an email address on the form, or better still email the scanned form (yes, clumsy I know!) we can forward important information to you as it becomes available. Newsletters are now sent by email only.
PS. If you want to really know what we are up to, read the Minutes- see the MORE tab- "Management Committee Meetings"
