At tonight’s ordinary Town of Victoria Park meeting councillors will decide whether to award a $121,000 tender to Bayswater’s BOS Civil to build the wall.
Town officers recommended the council support the construction of the wall with $50,000 of its cost being donated by the Town and the rest being paid back by the RSL under a legal agreement.
The total budget is $150,000 and it has been included in the Town’s 2014-15 assets capital works budget.
