Public meeting tonight 14 March - Proposed development at West Hobart Oval

WHEN supporters, today we received this urgent note:

Dear West Hobart Environment Network,

I am writing to you in my role as Vice President of the Lansdowne Crescent School Community Association to let you know about a proposal by Lady Gowrie to build an administration centre and child care rooms on the existing Council Change rooms at the West Hobart Oval.  The carpark for their development will be in place of our existing school playground. You may have seen an article in the paper about it today.  We are trying to raise the profile of this development and oppose it in its current form.

Tonight we will be having a SPECIAL COMMUNITY MEETING at the school at 7.30pm in the GP room, in the bottom part of the school, parallel to Gourlay Street.  It would be wonderful if someone from your Network could come along to hear what Lady Gowrie is proposing and what we as a community can do to lobby against this proposal.

You can also join the conversation on our Facebook page here.  We would love to partner with you on this issue.

Kind Regards,

Rachel Bain
Vice President of LCPS School Community Association.
