Proposed Renaming of View St Reserve

Following representations from the local community in December 2023 Council approved a request to conduct a community consultation to seek feedback on a proposal to rename View Street Reserve located on View Street, Chatswood to “Jim McCredie Park” after the late Jim McCredie.

Jim McCredie was a long-time Willoughby resident, community advocate, and 2004 Willoughby Citizen of the Year, who passed away on 19 October 2023.

Jim was President of the Chatswood West Ward Progress Association for many years and represented the Chatswood West Ward Progress Association on the Federation of Willoughby Progress Association, a role he undertook for many years.

Your feedback on this proposal will inform if it is appropriate for Council to seek approval from the Geographical Names Board for the name of the park to be changed.

Please leave your comments in the survey below by 11.59pm Sunday 23 June 2024.
