The Derwent Valley Council has requested that above ground pipes installed by Taswater in “The Avenue” be relocated underground. A unanimous vote from all councillors in the October minutes “instructs” TasWater to reinstall them underground, in consultation with the Willow Court Senior Project Officer, Mr Brett Noble.
These pipes throughout the Heritage area detract from the current restoration process by both the private owners and council owed properties and clearly shows TasWater’s lack of thought or communication.
A recent short documentary by film maker, Victoria Acuña showed the work that Mario Cortes has put into the old Administration Building, but the picture below shows how these pipes have detracted from the efforts of Mario to create a renovated art-deco beauty. View film here
