 Another motion by Allan was that we protest against the Hotel at Govett's Leap. The beauty of the Grose Valley from this point would become the exclusive privilege of those who could afford the hotel tariff. Frank Barlow said that the lease had already been granted and Heather Joyce said that it had been discussed at the Federation, which had written to the Blue Mountains Council.
