MILDURA Council says it consulted widely before agreeing to realign the steps of a 100-year-old Deakin Avenue rotunda as part of the centre plantation redevelopment.

The DeSailly Rotunda, between Eighth and Ninth streets, was opened in 1914 to commemorate the late Cr George DeSailly, who served on the Shire of Mildura from 1908 until his death in July 1913.
