It’s been a long struggle, but victory may be close. Geoff
Turnbull in one of his Redfern Waterloo Updates reports: “The Aboriginal
Housing Company (AHC) is putting the final touches on all the reports required
by the Director General of the Department of Planning for their Pemulwuy
Project Concept Plan Application for The Block. Prior to the submission being
made to the Department of Planning, the AHC will do a presentation to the local
community at the Redfern Community Centre at 4.30 pm on Tuesday 14 August 2007.
Come along to the presentation; see what is proposed and what has changed as a
result of continued input from the community during the preparation of the
concept plan. It is expected that the concept plan will go to the Department of
Planning in late August and, following assessment by the Department, will then
go on formal exhibition.”
