With Northern Rivers councils seemingly intent on concreting and pebblecreting every available public space lately, it is good to see an elderly woman take a stand against Richmond Valley Council's plan to paint over a much-loved and quirky local mural.
Council is quite happy to undertake a shire-wide rates revision which would see more money in its pockets, but is not willing to spend a little to have a local artist or signwriter repair this mural.
Sound your horn as you pass council chambers this week and let those councillors know that public art (even smiley cows) matters!Sunday, 13 April 2008
