Uncertainty remains over contamination testing at Sydney’s Moore Park Golf Course, with the NSW Government yet to release results from soil investigations conducted at the site earlier this year.
The long-awaited draft plans, which the government will release for public feedback today, include a reconfigured nine-hole golf course and an expanded 90-bay driving range at Moore Park South.
The battle to save Sydney’s historic Moore Park Golf Course has taken a sinister turn, with government agency Greater Sydney Parklands (GSP) accused of using Big Brother-style tactics to silence campaigners rallying against plans to slash the course in half.
In just nine months since ‘winning’ office, the Minns Labor Government has attacked golf courses, bowling clubs and now racecourses. It appears any green space in Sydney’s metropolitan area is ripe for the picking.
City of Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore allegedly lobbied Premier Chris Minns just three months before the government’s announcement to seize up to 20 hectares of Moore Park Golf Course for a new public park, according to a report in The Daily Telegraph.
