NSW Liberal/Nationals ADI Site commitment

A
message to the NSW Liberal Party
Honour your commitment to protect
a further 100 hectares of the ADI Site!
Before the
Penrith by-election held in June 2010, Brad Hazzard, the Shadow Planning
Minister, posted a comment on the community online news site -
streetcorner.com.au - that the NSW
Liberal/Nationals will honour its 2007 election commitment to conserve an additional 100 hectares within the ADI
Site Western Precinct (Jordan Springs). He went further to add that they would
also establish
ecological corridors in Western Sydney.
The Liberals now
appear to have reneged on this commitment
to the people of Western Sydney. We have heard nothing further from them
in the media about Brad Hazzard's commitment
We recently met with Stuart
Ayres, Bart Bassett and Tanya Davies, the three local Liberal candidates
and they are fully aware of the need to deliver on Brad Hazzard's
commitment on behalf of the Liberal/Nationals.
If the
Liberal/Nationals renege on this promise to Western Sydney then they have
demonstrated they will be no better than the current government.
The majority or people in
Penrith would welcome the scaling back of the hugely unpopular Jordan
Springs development as it will reduce population growth and relieve
pressure on Penrith's inadequate roads and infrastructure.

Liberal Dilemma
over Lend Lease Development Application to Penrith Council
Lend Lease
have lodged Development Applications with Penrith Council to clear 59
hectares of critically endangered Cumberland Plain Woodland in Jordans
Springs. This 59 hectares is part of the 100 hectare area that we believe
the Liberals must protect.
This is a big test for the
Liberal dominated Penrith Council as support for this DA clearly
demonstrates that the NSW Liberal Nationals have reneged on the above
promise to Western Sydney.
