WE NEED YOUR HELP

The Capital City Citizens' Committee is firmly of the view that the current City of Perth Act is fatally-flawed and a missed opportunity to create a great capital city for Western Australia. BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP.

Write, email, phone or lobby your local Member of the Legislative Assembly and Members of the Legislative Council. You can find their names and contact details at http://www.parliament.wa.gov.au/parliament/memblist.nsf/WebCurrMembElectorate Just type the name of your suburb or your postcode into the 'search' box and click on the 'Search' button.

Feel free to use information on this blog to help you make the case.

Thank you all.

Ironic Recognition

Congratulations to Cecilia Brooke for the award of the Premier's Australia Day Active Citizenship Award for a person over 25 years for the City of South Perth.

There's a lot more to the citation than her tireless work to prevent the forced amalgamation of South Perth and Victoria Park (and now to protect Kings Park and the residents of Subiaco against the City of Perth Bill), but many of us beyond South Perth will be forever thankful to Cecilia for her role in getting Colin Barnett to "fly the white flag" and back down from his forced local government amalgamations.

I wonder if Barnett gets the irony - we hope there's more to come.
