Deputy Lord Mayor Chiang Lim has accused the Federal Government of ignoring Parramatta’s “growing pains” in its State of Australian Cities 2010 report.
The 161-page Infrastructure Australia report is intended to provide a national snapshot of 17 cities with populations of more than 100,000 but fails to include Parramatta.
PARRAMATTA has been a place for many firsts from the beginning of white civilisation and now is set to be the
showcase of many firsts for the Guinness Book of Records.
With great vision, our deputy lord mayor Chiang Lim has proposed that Parramatta Park become the place were records are broken or made.
Australia's first observatory, first land grant, first farm, first jail and the first Government House were all in Parramatta and now Deputy Lord Mayor Chiang Lim wants to continue the tradition.
Flushed from his success in tackling overcrowding at women’s toilets, Cr Lim wants
Parramatta to become known as a city where records are broken – Guinness Work Records no less.
Parramatta has been synonymous with holding records for many things. Parramatta had Australia’s first observatory, the first land grant, the first farm and first pastoralists, first successful farm, the first vineyard, first legal brewery, jail, orchard, tannery, horse race meeting, first road link to Sydney and the first ferry, the first Government House and the first Australian naval ship.
