DS22/1239 - Modifications to DA11/1386 – 75/79 Queen Street, Berry

I have been approached by locals who have asked me to start a petition on this matter. This community petition can be signed by clicking here

For those unfamiliar with this issue, in 2011, a DA was approved for a service station on the abovementioned site.

In approving the DA, council attached several conditions of consent. The applicant is now seeking to radically change those consent conditions which will have a significant impost on the Berry community.

Calderwood is one of the fastest growing areas in our region and requires a new primary school to cater for increasing demand.

The established primary schools at Tullimbar and Albion Park currently serve this area, but with over 400 enrolments each, we need to build a new primary school now.

We need to have the entire community behind this project. Please add your name to this petition below.

We the undersigned call on the Minister for Regional Transport and Roads the Hon Sam Farraway MLC to commission an independent audit of the Oak Flats Interchange.

We the undersigned strongly condemn attempts by the Greens Political Party and NSW Labor Councillors for their moves to water down Shoalhaven City Council tree management policies that allow property owners to remove dangerous trees that endanger lives and property.

As major roadworks near an end, my next major focus will be securing a commitment for the Nowra Bypass.

I have been approached by a group of residents that would like to see Shoalhaven City Council institute a Green Bin Service in the Shoalhaven like all other neighbouring Councils. This petition is an opportunity for residents to support the concept of separating green waste at the household level into a Green Bin.
