MEET YOUR NEIGHBOURS AND Make
SOUTHBANK MORE LIVEABLE

Who We Are:

Southbank3006 is a group of residents committed to unifying Southbank. Together, we hope to tackle the unique social issues we face as a fast-growing neighborhood consisting mostly of high-rise apartment buildings. As locals, we are committed to making Southbank a safe, thriving neighbourhood that connects people across our diverse village spaces. The founding group includes:

Jannine Pattison has lived in Southbank for over 16 years and has championed the issues of traffic management and safety in our community, regularly meeting with VicRoads and the City of Melbourne on these issues. Her work is bringing about the upgrade of the Power St and City Road intersection and she is currently tackling the Power St and Kavanagh St intersection. Jannine’s goal for Southbank3006 is to create a community where residents and visitors alike feel safe, inspired, and delighted every day.

MaryKay Rauma lives and works in 3006. She is bringing the Southbank3006 community alive with her depth of marketing and communications experience in the USA and Australia. She believes that Southbank3006 residents need a community group that brings people together connecting its diverse neighbourhood sectors and the many nationalities that call Southbank home.

Trisha Avery a well-known long-term resident in Southbank having first moved here in 2009.

She has championed local liveability issues for many years across Southbank and South Melbourne and brings a wealth of experience in governance and volunteer organisations. You may recognise Trisha’s name from the byline of her regular column in The Southbank News.
