If the policies were adopted according to the document as it now stands, and the area was given over to the creation of a dedicated artists in residence space at Arthurs Head under the managership of a Arts organisation (ie.Artsource) it would lead over time to the removal of prominent arts businesses and all of the artists, and historical groups who are now operating from this area. The successful arts businesses who currently operate from this area and who contribute to both the cultural and financial success of Fremantle would be lost from Fremantle for ever.

The document titled the “Cultural Development Working Group” with the section that pertains to the Arthur’s Head precinct is under researched and its strategies are non inclusive and poorly resolved. It is not a suitable document to use as a reference point for any recommendations for this area.
