Save those Casino cows!

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!
