Victoria Barracks: Council pushing for heritage protections now

The Mayor has written to the Federal Government asking for binding heritage protections to be locked in before Victoria Barracks gets sold off. Good to know someone's pushing on this before it's too late. Council is also proposing new netball and basketball courts at Woollahra Ovals in Rose Bay — feedback open until 8 July, or show up in person on 16 June at 5.30pm if you want to have a say.
