The letter below was emailed to the members of the Forestville RSL Club.
Dear Forestville RSL Club Member,
As promised in our first letter and subsequent communication regarding your input into what you would like to see included in the potential redevelopment of the Club, we are writing to you to introduce the architect that has been appointed by the Board following a comprehensive selection process.
Please welcome Quattro Architecture. Established in 2000, this award-winning architectural practice offers an impressive folio of successfully completed projects, which includes NSW licensed Clubs. During the selection process Quattro Architecture demonstrated a solid understanding of the brief and design process as outlined by the Board, to identify the opportunities for maximising quality outcomes for the Club. Pleasingly, they are based on the Northern Beaches, and are very familiar with the needs and tastes of the local community, in addition to a thorough understanding of the local council building requirements.
Quattro’s extensive experience provides a high level of design and management skills, and the team are motivated and committed to delivering the best outcome for the Club and its members.
The Heart of Forestville project promises to be the iconic focal point of a strong, connected and harmoniously integrated community; where the young and the elderly, new and old residents come together as one.
You are now able to access a new website, www.heartofforestville.com.au, either directly or via a link from the Club’s website, www.forestvillersl.com.au, or that of the Forestville RSL sub-Branch, www.forestvillersl.org.au. It is important to note that this website will, going forward, be the principal method of communicating with you regarding any proposed redevelopment.
Alternatively, please make sure your email and/or mobile phone contact details that we hold are correct. This will make it a whole lot easier for us to keep you up to date as we move through the project. If you have any concerns in this area, please contact the club, or visit the website.
Further updates to members, which will include a face-to-face information event that will happen in the coming months, will be provided over the next few weeks as we progress discussions.
If you have any questions about this exciting new project, please don’t hesitate to send an email to: feedback@forestvillersl.com.au
Finally, thank you to all who have provided feedback on the proposal thus far. There have been a large number of positive, interesting, and helpful suggestions and ideas which will help in delivering a quality result.
Regards
