More on Ropes Crossing controversy

Ah, another paper has covered the controversy: The Western Weekender for Dec. 4 2007 has this

Joe Jasinski, who has lived at Ropes Crossing for a little over a year, said ... “Nobody was ever told there was a proposal for a tavern, club or pub as part of Ropes Crossing. The main concern from residents is the location of the tavern given the suburbs that bound the community, some of which do not have a great social reputation.”

Ah, Joe, that was silly. You moved into this area, you don't like it you can move out again. With attitudes like yours I wouldn't like any of our kids to be near you.

Oh, wait a minute, what a lovely extra piece to find: http://www.lendleaseinvestmentmanagement.com.au/llweb/dll/main.nsf/toprint/news_20070724_dll?opendocument&print

more than 40 students from St Marys North Public School and Tregear Public School will help rejuvenate a pocket of Ropes Crossing which will eventually become a nature reserve.

Hmmm. Lovely of our kids to help out.
