FENCES REMOVED AROUND OLD NEWCASTLE BOWLING CLUB SITE

We would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of Newcastle – `The Local Developers´ and pay respect to their elders past and present.
We can only hope that this is the last we see of the Stronach Land Claim upon King Edward Park. :–)
Great! Another piece of land we can pay our rates to have maintained by a council who are already stretched to the limit.
Surely there is already plenty of recreational area in the inner city.
The proposed development was very low key would have been a great asset to the area.
King Edward Park is a fantastic resource and a nearby kiosk would have been welcomed to save a long walk down the hill.
The development would have complemented the soon to be re-opened Bogey Hole.
Stronach won the tender legitimately and should have a a right to go ahead.
“Concerned citizen” was probably against the Merewether Surfhouse too.
