Hour of power workshop - 14 May

This Saturday, 14 May at 11am at Tawarri, 120 The Esplanade Dalkeith there will be an hour of power/ workshop/gathering to discuss the removal of Class A Reserve, into the hands of a private developer.

 

Class A reserve has the highest protection zoning and is meant to be protected for all future generations. This transaction was strongly rejected by council, on fiscal and environmental grounds.

 

We invite students and parents down to support the event, as the land is gazetted for future generations, we believe it is vital young people are represented.

 

Her Worship, Fiona Argyle

Mayor, City of Nedlands
