This statement was issued in the latest RAHS E-News. Partial Demolition of Lennox Bridge Approved: On Wednesday 3 October the NSW Heritage Council voted to allow Parramatta City Council to demolish part of the 1830s convict-built Lennox Bridge to provide for two riverbank cycleways. The Heritage Council still has vacant positions for an historian and a National Trust representative, who might have been able to influence the vote. To voice your disapproval please email The Honorable Robyn Parker, Minister for Heritage Robyn.Parker@parliament.nsw.gov.au, Heritage Council Chair Professor Lawrence Nield Lawrence.Nield@newcastle.edu.au. Parramatta City Council has yet to determine the Development Application so you should also contact the Lord Mayor Cr John Chedid jchedid@parracity.nsw.gov.au. We are seeking your help once again to save an important part of Parramatta, Sydney & Australia's history. This development application was withdrawn by Parramatta Council the first time they presented it due to the amount of objections it raised by individuals and Family & Local History Groups. Unfortunately, the council has re-presented the proposal which has now been approved by the NSW Heritage Council - for reasons that are unknown and completely incomprehensible to us. Please voice your disapproval of this application by emailing the abovementioned authorities. Thank you Dorothy Warwick
