ABOUT US

Save West Bondi Junction is a group of local residents

from the West Oxford Street Precinct and surrounds.

We are apolitical. We come from all age groups and

different socio-economic backgrounds. Some of us

have been here for ages and some are new.

Save West Bondi Junction Residents Group is not

against development, we simply want

development to be in line with the existing

Waverley Council 2012 LEP. We also support the

retention of historic homes in the area between

Oxford Street and Grafton Street.

Petition

community support
