More On The Expansion of Urban Growth Boundaries
Make a Submission Online
You can do a survey style submission/objection to the Government's proposal to triple the size of Melbourne and apply levies, etc.
This shouldn't take long and could make a big difference to our cause and to your future. Please take a few minutes to lodge an objection.
The proposal connects Bulla to Diggers Rest in suburbia, wiping out Melbourne Airport Overlays, significant vegetation and fauna, etc etc.
Do you want:
Curfews at Melbourne Airport?
To have to drive 120km across our city through wall to wall urban sprawl?
Exponentially greater congestion on our roads and public transport system, in our hospitals, schools, health system?
No water or electricity in summer?
No native flora or fauna?
Clogged sewerage system?
Higher rates and taxes?
More expensive food (because we will lose farms and market gardens that currently provide for our city)?
etc
etc
Submissions close at 5pm on Friday 17 July 2009
