If you're new to this website, we'd like to say hello. We're don't want thousands of construction trucks running through our little residential streets. For a quick 'potted' history, click on "THE SHORT STORY" above, or click here.

The Fallout – Before and After

Doing a 'before and after' study is helpful. It helps us understand what is actually happening. And it's even better if it's done visually, because then everyone can see the difference, and everyone is 'on the same page'.
We've prepared a visual 'Before and After' of COFA & UNSW's plans.

Letter published in the Wentworth Courier


Wentworth Courier, page 39, 17 February issue.
"We ask that the council, the NSW Planning Minister and the Commonwealth funding body insist that UNSW honour its commitments and approvals. UNSW's self-made problems should not be dumped on the community"
The Wenty is also available  in "page flicking" format here. Just close the ad window by clicking close [x] in the right hand corner, then click through to page 38-39 to get to the Opinion page.

It would be nice if The Wenty also had these letters in a plain and simple old html page, don't you think?

And it appears as though we're not the only ones upset about trucks. Our friends in Rose Bay are also "fed up with their small streets being used as an access point for a construction site." See page 7 in the same issue of The Wenty. This time the redevelopment is for a school. Hmmmm.

Joke of the day

Q: How do you get thousands of trucks into a small heritage precinct?
A: You give Government stimulus money to COFA & UNSW...
