We are asking council for an extension to the submission date so community has time to respond but if you feel that this is not the right development for this sensitive area get your submission in today.
We are soliciting independent reports on landscaping and environmental impact as well the building plans and the effect of this development on local residents. We will provide updates on the development here (link to dedicated 3 Moona st site).
We want to be clear this is not "Nimbyism" This isn't about anybody’s back yard. This is community caring for the National and Marine Park they have a responsibility to protect.
