Don’t miss the line up of locals speaking at the public hearing being held on the Coast tomorrow, Wednesday, April 10.
The committee chose to hear from these people, based on their written submissions to the inquiry into the NSW planning system and the impacts of climate change on the environment and communities.
They include the Grow Urban Shade Trees on the Woy Woy peninsula, and two other speakers from the peninsula.
The only other group represented will be Wamberal Save Our Sand, members of whom the committee will meet on site.
Established on 24 August, 24, last year, the NSW Parliamentary committee says it has received a high volume of submissions and there is a delay in getting them online but so far there are more than 230 on the website.
At least six of the seven members of the committee, all State MPs, are expected at Wednesday’s hearing which starts at 10.45 and finishes at 2.15.
The committee will then head to Wamberal Beach to familiarise themselves with the issues there.
And, of course, the beach is a public place, so I’ll be there too. What about you?
The MPs are Chair Sue Higginson, Greens; John Ruddick, LDP; Mark Buttigieg ALP; Anthony D’Adam ALP; Scott Farlow, Lib; Jacqui Munro, Lib; and Peter Primrose, ALP.
All are members of the Legislative Council’s planning and environment committee.
