Premier,


I want you to abandon the sale of public land at 16-18 Bayview Avenue
and have it added to the Wolli Creek Regional Park. Anything less
contradicts your public statements about hanging on to every bit of
inner-city green space that we can.


If we’re going to build houses, particularly closer to the CBD, we need
to preserve and protect as much  [PUBLIC] green space as we possibly can.
We can’t just build houses; we have to build world class beautiful
parks, and that means preserving every bit of [PUBLIC] green space that we can
possibly get our hands on.


When labour and materials as well as Homes were in shortage(IN 1950S
residential building was limited/prioritised to two bedrooms-SOURCE 104
YEAR OLD NOW PASSED) houses (and MUDs under Torrens Title) were limited
to two bedrooms and one bathroom. Since then Strata Laws have come in.

'as a significant portion of materials used in residential construction
are imported, such as steel and electrical equipment.' - NSW

White's Creek Catchment in the Rain

-
Checked out White's Creek Catchment in the rain with a few long time residents including an 82 year old who was born at the Private Hospital where the Leichhardt Bolo is and moved to where she lives now when she was 1. She has seen a few changes and people come and go.    Ferris Lane looked fabulous!    The new lintel in Ferris Street seemed to be working well - residents have worked with council to make this happen along with cleaning out nearby drains and gutters.   Evan Jones Playground had a tree down. And a few other trees need mulching.     Water was flowing out of the grate where Styles Street crosses White's Creek and different drivers approached the puddle. The 150 year old salt glazed pipe was still working too!    Photos and Videos at https://www.instagram.com/p/CMvolNkD2Pb/
