Does Excelsior Reserve Still Exist?[edit]

User Davidlisaanna has asserted that parts of Excelsior Reserve were not incorporated into Bidjigal Reserve, but I'm unable to find any documentation for this. I've posted a message on the Davidlisaanna talk page but there has been no response. Does anyone know any more about this? Otherwise I'm inclined to delete the comment unless some justification can be made for it RayNorris 11:32, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Following my question above, since no-one has come forward with any evidence that any part of Excelsior Reserve was not made part of Bidjigal Reserve, I've deleted the two statements to that effect. RayNorris (talk) 21:50, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User RayNorris has questioned my assertion that only part of Excelsior Park was included in Bidjigal Reserve. My defence of that proposition is as follows. Excelsior Reserve never officially existed, although BHSC hs chosen to call the bushland surrounding that which is now Bidjigal by that name. It was gazetted as Excelsior Park in 1958, and is recognised by the Geographic Names Board (of NSW) as such today. "Excelsior Reserve" has not been so recognised. Two parts of Excelsior Park still exist as such. they are otherwise known as Ted Horwood Reserve, and Eric Mobbs Reserve. Reading form the Deed of Agreement (DAg) signed by the Crown, BHSC, Telstra, Integral Energy, and Ian John "Bundeluk" Watson on 4 Dec 2003... "M2 Bushland" menas the land described in Schedule 1 to this agreement.It comprises the area of the existing darling Mills State Forest and Excelsior Park (excluding the Eric Mobbs Reserve and the Ted Horwood Reserve). Section 5.1 of the DAg states "The local council, the Crown Lands Minister and the Forestry Minister will take all necessary steps to advertise and promote a change of nameof the area of the M2 Bushland now known as Darling mills State Forest and part of Excelsior Park to "Bidjigal Reserve".

Many thanks for the extra info. I've amended the article to that effect. RayNorris (talk) 12:46, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
