Curlewis Parks land subdivision targeted by racisim

An article in today's Geelong Advertiser (June 17, 2010), by Tony Prytz entitled: Racism row over Clifton Springs housing says that developers selling residential lots in the Curlewis Parks estate new subdivision have been targeted by some local residents who believe some areas have been earmarked for a social housing development.

"Clifton Springs real estate agents claim they have been abused by residents over rumours that a housing development targeted Sudanese migrants.

The racist fire was fanned this week when someone rang 3AW claiming that the rumour was fact..."

Patrick Hughes from the Drysdale Clifton Springs Community Association also make a comment in the same article that it is disappointing that there is no social housing aspect to this development.
