The paragraph” all aboriginal community groups on the central coast support this development “
Is not a reuse statement . The land council does not represent the the true custodians of this area.
The land council is only interested in profit, not preserving cultural , environmental heritage.
It will be a huge further loss of habitat to endangered
Species.

“We are in no way against First Nation People’s right to do what they want with their land or further themselves economically.” This is perhaps the most strange sentence from the opposition to this development proposal. When somebody completely opposes a development of this nature they are definitely “against First Nation People’s right to do what they want with their land”.

I am greatly concerned that an application to rezone this protected area currently zoned C2 (the highest environmental ranking) will set a precedent for any developer (Land Council or otherwise) to destroy or affect in any way, habitat and sacred sites in future. We need our politicians to speak up against this particular proposal. Their silence is of concern as well.

I am a non Aboriginal woman from Bensville and fully support the Aboriginal community that are from this area . The Darkingjung Land Council do not seem to care about these people , the environment, protecting important historical and ecological areas at Kariong and surrounds and they don’t listen to their Aboriginal members who contest this zoning and development at Kariong . Do they care more about the people or the money they receive for development?!!
