Manly Marlins Campaign Against Oval Car Park

22/7/2016

1 Comment

 
The reality of the consequences of the Manly Oval car park has now stirred up Club officials of the Manly Marlins Rugby Club who have launched an on-line petition to Save Manly Oval. Sign at: www.manlyrugby.com.au

 As reported in the Manly Daily, Marlins Vice President Anthony Bergelin confirmed that the lodged development application for the car park showed a reduction in the size of the playing field by 3.5m, which is totally unacceptable.

With the size of the oval already at its minimum, this major change will make the playing area unworkable according to the Merlins.

Quoted in the Manly Daily Anthony Berlin said it was the Club's intention to meet with the Northern Beaches Administrator and the independent consultants reviewing the process to "outline some very concerning aspects of the development process".

In the meantime the Oval looks like a bog with the $millions spent on works to install a detention tank earlier this year seeming to only exasperate the condition of the ground, as the recent photos below clearly show. 

An independent report on the Oval Car Park and Whistler Street redevelopment plans, pushed so vehemently  by the then Mayor Jean Hay and General Manager Henry Wong against strong community opposition, is expected to come to the next Northern Beaches Council meeting on 9th August, which will be held at Mona Vale.

Interesting that its left to the rugby club vice-president to take up & run with the petition. Where is the club president on this matter?
