Don’t forget the NEED BEFORE GREED Rally
Starting 1pm at Commonwealth Reserve on Sudnay 13th April..”
21st April is the deadline before Heritage Victoria closes submissions on the Oriental Hotel.
The demolition of the Oriental Hotel is not yet a done deal. The Heritage Council of Victoria still has to decide whether to accept or object to the recommendation to demolish the Oriental Hotel. Submissions close at 5pm April 21st.
Part of the reason we need to have the #needbeforegreed rally on April 13th is so we can show the Heritage Council how much our community cares about the historic Hotel. You can RSVP for the rally on Facebook and invite your family and friends.
Some of our wonderful volunteers will be putting together a more formal Save Williamstown Inc submission to the Heritage Council. However, if you want to make your voice heard directly we've also set out a simple three step process for you to submit as well.
1. Here is a Heritage Council submission form with all the necessary details added in for the Oriental. You can download it and use it to put in a formal submission yourself.
2. If you would like a copy of other submissions for an idea of what to say have a look at what Council have put in. The main thing is to say why you feel the Oriental is significant for all of Victoria.
3. Print off your submission, sign it and send it by post or email it to the details already on your submission form.
Catch you at the #needbeforegreed rally on Sunday 13th April 1pm at the Commonwealth Reserve. Together we can do this.
Original nomination for the State Register was by Save Williamstown Inc. The nomination is supported by Hobsons Bay Council
