This is usually done by redeveloping estates to reduce the concentration of social housing and increase the numbers of private owners and renters. There is a lot of debate about whether this is the right approach to be taking, whether it works, and how to go about it.

The time has come to review the progress of this new framework and celebrate the successes, and look at the lessons learnt and plan together for the framework which will take us through the next two years. So we invite all Residents and Agencies to come along and hear the reports of the action groups and help us to set the vision for the coming two years. Lunch provided This has included groups that looked at Tenant Participation and Maintenance, Learning and Employment Training, Community Safety, and Health. The groups ran a number of initiatives, from community events (such as Summer on the Green, and the Older Wiser Festival), overseeing the Waterloo Green Action plan and facilitating partnership based training courses for local young people.

These groups consisting of local residents and agencies from across sectors meeting regularly and who formed their own action plan to address community priorities set by local residents. In addition the Local Member and the Lord Mayor held two forums a year each where resident could raise issues directly with Heads of Government Agencies.

MEETING FOR RESIDENTS AND SUPPORTERS

MONDAY 5 JULY, 5.15pm - 7.15pm

DARLINGTON PUBLIC SCHOOL

(cnr Abercrombie St and Golden Grove, entrance in Abercrombie St)

On 4 June the Sydney Morning Herald reported that Railcorp is considering resuming and demolishing a block of historic houses in North Newtown to make way for a controversial new CityRail ''relief line''.  We have confirmed that this is a real and imminent threat involving all of Leamington Ave and several properties at the bottom of Pine and Holdsworth Streets.  Up to 34 families  face the heartache of  losing their homes and the amenity of the adjoining streets would be destroyed.  Leamington Ave, along with Pine, Randle and Holdsworth Streets, forms part of the historic Pines Estate Heritage Conservation Area.

  •      Our homes are at risk.
  •      Our community is at risk.
  •      Our neighbourhood heritage is at risk.

Transport NSW will decide on its 'preferred rail alignment' in the coming months.  We have a narrow window of opportunity to defeat this proposal. 

Please join us for a meeting with:

  • Carmel Tebbutt, MP, Deputy Premier and Member for Marrickville
  • Kirsty Ruddock, Environmental Defenders Office
  • Brian Watters and Chris Meale, Project Manager for City Relief Line, Transport NSW (invited)
  • Representative from Sydney City Council (invited)

This will be an opportunity for community people to ask Jim their Questions and have a community focused discussion. Jim is the author of “Neighbor Power: Building Community the Seattle Way”. You can use these links to find out more about Neighbor Power and see some extracts on Google Books at Neighbor Power: Building Community the Seattle Way. The Book can be borrowed from City of Sydney Libraries. Jim has had considerable experience both as a community organiser and then working in Government working with Communities. His experience with dealing with community building, community based planning, shutters on shops, running a Department of Neighbourhoods etc highlight the benefits for both government and communities of working together and have relevance to Redfern Waterloo. Jim has previously done some work with the City of Sydney Council.

REDWatch has previously had a presentation about Jim's work in Seatlle and how it might apply to Redfern Waterloo from Councillor Marcelle Hoff as a result of earlier work done by Jim with the City of Sydney. Jim has also previously spoken at a CoS session for Community Groups in the City of Sydney and there was considerable support for trying some of the initiative he used in Seatlle.
