9.7 EVELEIGH RAILWAY
WORKSHOPS HERITAGE (S083686)
The Transport, Heritage and Planning Sub-Committee decided
that consideration of this matter be deferred to the meeting of Council on 26
August 2013.
At the meeting of Council, it was moved by Councillor Mant,
seconded by Councillor Green –
It is resolved that Council note:
(A) the Redfern Waterloo Heritage Taskforce report, as shown
at Attachment A to the subject report, and the Eveleigh Railway Workshops
Interpretation Plan by 3D Projects, as shown at Attachment B to the subject
report; and
(B) the Lord Mayor has written to the Minister for Planning
and Infrastructure requesting:
(i) a community and government planning and heritage
taskforce be convened to provide input into planning and heritage matters for
the Eveleigh Railway Workshops; and(ii) consent authority for the Redfern Waterloo precinct be
returned to the City of Sydney and the Central Sydney Planning Committee.
Variation. At the request of Councillor Doutney, and by
consent, the motion was varied by the addition of the following new clause:
(C) in the event that a government heritage taskforce is not
established within a reasonable time, the City will work with the Australian
Technology Park, Carriageworks and UrbanGrowth and other members of the
previous Taskforce, with a view to bringing the parties together to explore how
a co-operative effort could strengthen heritage interpretation and promotion
across the former Eveleigh Railway Workshops site for the benefit of all
parties.
The motion, as varied by consent, was carried unanimously.
