This Land is Our Land Rally

Published on Jan 25, 2016 NO MORE SPIN Todays rally was attended by over two hundred Gosford residents who represent thousands of concerned individuals. The rally gave an opportunity for an open dialogue with the common denominator raised against all levels of Government was the misinformation, back door deals, lack of consultation with the community which encompassed the reasons for the gathering. The catalyst for today’s rally was the demolition of Gosford Public School on the promise of a Regional Performing Arts Cultural Precinct to be built in its place. However, the Liberal party announced last year that the Australian Tax Office will be built in the prime position. We the community categorically do not agree with anything other then a Regional Performing Arts Cultural Precinct on the earmarked former Gosford Public school site. We the community do not agree with a sterile office building being built on this site. As the vice president of the Multi Arts Confederation, advocate for the arts and a concerned citizen of Gosford I am in favour of development in Gosford which takes into account all aspects of community design and development which at its core benefits tourism and economy without the negative effects on our growing population. I am also very concerned at the broken promises and ask the Liberal Party to honour the people of Gosford and build a Regional Performing Arts Cultural Precinct on this site and no other.
