Report inaccurate
A report that the Summit Road Society specifically supported the Heathcote County Council’s land purchase in Bowenvale Valley was inaccurate, said the society’s president, Mr J. W. Jameson, yesterday. The society only supported the intention to make the land a reserve, said Mr Jameson.
“The concept of a reserve area reaching from Rapaki Track to Victoria Park fits in ideally with the aims
and objects of the Summit Road Society,” said Mr Jameson. “As to the specific purchase of Bowenvale Valley by the Heathcote County Council, this is a local body political issue into which we do not wish to enter,” he said. The Heathcote County Council has signed to buy
the Bowenvale block and the Civic Trust has launched a fund to buy the Mount Vernon block in the valley.
