Over the last 12 years Ross Smith has been active in REDWatch keeping an eye on what Government bodies do in Redfern, Eveleigh, Darlington and Waterloo – and trying to ensure that what happens works for our diverse communities and not just government. Ross’s encyclopaedic knowledge; his consistently taking it up to bureaucrats especially around public housing and redevelopment; and his desired to get them to play in our sandpit rather than us just play in their sandpit, found a natural fit in REDWatch.

File Waterloo Newsletter November 2016 from FACS Communities Plus by REDWatch, last updated: Nov 12, 2016 10:49 AM
This is a pdf copy of the Newsletter distributed to Waterloo public housing tenants on 11 November 2016. It is the first publication issued under the Communities Plus programme for redeveloping this and other housing estates. It seeks to provide some assurances for tenants that the Master Planning will take 18 months and that the Master Plan will produce a staging plan and only when that is complete will they know where on the estate building will start. The newsletter says and that the small number of tenants will need to move will be given 6 months' notice from that point that they will need to relocate for the initial construction. This changes the first relocations from the earlier announced mid-2017 to possibly the end of 2018. Master Planning will start in 2017.
