Thanks Julie - glad to see the plants are still flowering. I did write to TAMS re adopting a more sympathetic mowing regime that they said they would try and take on board. On your recent inspection were there still issues with slashing apparent?

This endangered grassland is up for multi storey flats starting where the Cullen is in the Mawson to Woden plan out for comment at the moment. Greg Baines told me it was a flood way and wouldn't be developed. There is already excavation going on on the other side of the foot bridge nearby. It has been mown twice recently probably getting ready to concrete it over and sell to developers.
