Fairfield Council has called for community feedback on the monument proposed for Edensor Park.

Ms Lee-Shoy also said key stakeholder groups in the Bonnyrigg and Edensor Park community had been consulted but individual households had not been notified directly.

``There was no letterbox drop as we felt this was not the most effective way to communicate with residents,'' she said.

The community consultation period will end on Friday.

All responses from the community will be collated and assessed by council staff before a report is prepared for the councillors.

The proposed memorial statue, to be built on the corner of Smithfield Road and Elizabeth Drive, would stand 4.5metres tall.
