HERITAGE AND PROTECTING OUR PAST

Woodville Independents recognise that Parramatta has more significant heritage items then any other place within Australia and is home to more nineteen century heritage then even Port Arthur or Norfolk Island. As their representative, I support the principles of heritage contained in the Burra Charta which establishes a framework for identifying and managing heritage places and objects.

I also recognise the role of heritage and seek to provide a balance between continuity and change ina local environment and acknowledge that this balance is critical to a rich and productive culture.

I will be promoting the point that Council needs to maintain a heritage conservation strategy which reflects our local community.
