A curfew for Badgerys Creek Airport

The issue

A message from Mayor Stephen Bali
The residents of western Sydney need your help to protect them from the effects of the proposed Badgerys Creek Airport. 
If one class of people (those living near the Sydney and Adelaide airports) are deemed deserving of curfew protection, then so are those living near Badgerys Creek.
The people of western Sydney are not second class citizens and they do not deserve second class treatment.
It's all about equity and a fair go for the west!
Blacktown City Council has a long track record of fighting to ensure Western Sydney is neither a dumping ground nor an abused populace.
Yet, unless we unite and take action we are staring this in the face yet again.
The current plan is for a 24/7 domestic, international and commercial airport at Badgery's Creek that will eventually handle up to 82 million passengers a year*.
By comparison, the curfew-protected Sydney Airport is currently handling 39 million a year.
Once again, the people of western Sydney are feeling disenfranchised and trodden upon.
Make your voice heard.  Sign the petition and send a clear message that western Sydney will no longer tolerate being sold short.
