New Norfolk News has reported that Willow Court Historic Precinct (stage 1) conservation work has now been complete. It was believed that Reporter and Councilor Damian Bester attended the Lyons Community Breakfast and has reported the words of Eric Hutchinson MP Members for Lyons.
“Mr Hutchinson touched on the significance of hosting the event at Willow Court, where the $2 million first stage of a conservation and redevelopment project has just been completed”
Eric Hutchinson also went on to update the gathered crowd about the Heritage listing of Willow Court
“He said the site’s nomination for National Heritage List status had progressed to the full assessment stage.”
We are keen, now that this announcement has been made, to know what the Derwent Valley Council’s plans are for the site. In particular:
Tours,
Public Access,
Community House relocation,
Educational tours,
Events for,
Ex-employees, Residents/Advocates and families and the general public.
We are excited to hear this announcement through the New Norfolk News outlet and we are pleased that Eric Hutchinson has taken this site on with such enthusiasm. It is hoped that the Council will announce its plans soon and we also hope that they are as enthusiastic and big picture as their Federal Member of Parliament.
