THANK YOU
Over 1,600 initial objections have already been submitted by residents, businesses and organisations who care deeply about protecting our community.
The strength of that response has been incredibly important.
This consultation represents another significant opportunity to ensure local concerns are fully considered before any decision is made.
Thank you for your continued support.
Together, we will continue working to Stop the Quarry at Westerfield.
No turning back: If the pit is approved, the damage will be done.
