The New England Highway landmark was donated to council through the cultural gift program.

Councillors voted unanimously to accept the donation, taking on official ownership of the attention-grabbing structure.

It’s understood the Council paid an undisclosed sum to have external valuations conducted on the site.

The 31-year-old monument continues to attract more than 110,000 visitors annually.
