Parramatta. Relocate bureaucrats

Former government bureaucrat, Bob Meyer, who drafted the first forward-looking for Parramatta in the 1970s, believes Western Sydney is due for a revamp. Mr Meyer, now the director of planning, at Cox Richardson Architects, argues that the entire NSW bureaucracy should be relocated to Parramatta. The administrative centre of California is not San Francisco or Los Angeles; it’s Sacramento. The same with New York. It’s not Manhattan, it’s Albany. It can be done,” he said the Sunday Telegraph.
