THE new Willow Court Conservation Committee had held its first meeting and would soon call for community representation, general manager Stephen Mackey told a Derwent Valley Council workshop on Thursday night.

Also in attendance was the chairman of the Tasmanian Heritage Council, Dianne Snowden. … Mr Mackey said Mr Llewellyn would soon be asking the Friends of Frescati Committee and the Willow Court and Barracks Working Group to each put forward three nominations for potential community representatives on his committee. http://www.newsnn.net/See More
