Woollahra Council has just launched a plaque scheme, kind of like the Blue Plaque scheme in London. Here is the link to Woollahra's. Now the plan is for council to put up four plaques during 2013, and community nominations for the first round of plaques are due in February. You can find the nomination forms on the council website.
I would love to see some plaques on Cambridge Street so encourage everyone to put in an application. There are quite a few notable residents that I have written about so far, the distinguished soldier, the famous poet, and the boxing champion to name but a few. There are even a few others I haven't got around to posting about yet, the diplomat, the Australian cricket captain and the accomplished artist (with work in every State Gallery and the NGA).
