THE Kingston Residents Association will host its AGM this week.
In a statement, the advocacy group said that the AGM would address plans to remove parkland across the Kingston municipality. “Kingston’s parks are under threat and residents are fighting back. At 2pm, Sunday 3 May at Chelsea Heights Community Centre, the Kingston Residents Association AGM will hear from committee member locals battling the loss of treasured green spaces,” the KRA said.
“Silvana Anthony and Michelle Hornstein will speak on a 30 year fight to protect promised Heatherton parkland, now slated for a Suburban Rail Loop train yard. Bronwyn Currie and Rosemary West will recount efforts to save historic Groves Reserve, while Ian Morgans challenges plans to sell Sir William Fry Reserve land for high-rise development. Community voices are rising, before these spaces are gone for good.”
