NOW AVAILABLE - BLANTYRE FARMS OBJECTION TEMPLATE/GUIDE

Help us to SAY NO to the Blantyre Farms, (Edwina & Michael Beveridge), proposal for a duplicate intensive factory farm piggery (25,000 pigs) in HARDEN, NSW, AUSTRALIA. Anyone can lodge an objection. You don’t need to reside in the Hilltops shire (former Boorowa, Harden & Young councils’). To be considered, objections must be received by Hilltops council by 5pm, TUESDAY 3 JANUARY 2017. To assist you, we have drafted an OBJECTION TEMPLATE/GUIDE which you can use as is, or as a guide in addition to any other matters you may wish to include in a personal objection. We have included council’s email address in the TEMPLATE. The TEMPLATE can be located side by side with the Blantyre Farms history, footage, photos, and our petition. All you need to do is click on the link, http://aussiepigs.com/blantyre which will open up to the TEMPLATE. You can then copy, paste and email your objection as is, or with additional comments you may wish to include. When you have emailed your objection to council, PLEASE continue to share this post. Ask your friends and family to LODGE AN OBJECTION, SIGN THE PETITION, and LIKE our ‘Say No To Blantyre Farms In Harden FB page’ https://www.facebook.com/Say-No-To-Blantyre-Farms-In-Harden-108958142816434/ IMPORTANT: From a planning assessment perspective, it is not sufficient to simply state you don’t like, or don’t approve of a development application. You need to explain and demonstrate why you are objecting, and where possible, back that up with reference to the development application and the legislation. If a submission is by way of an objection, the grounds of the objection MUST be specified in the submission. While the TEMPLATE may appear a little daunting to some, we have endeavoured to include all matters which are relevant and which have continued to be the focus of our Say No campaign, (Animals, the Environment & People). This is what we have endeavoured to provide for YOU. We have enormous faith and confidence in all of YOU to make a personal choice whether to use the TEMLATE as is, to personalise, to use segments of the Template, or to write you own. FOR THE ANIMALS, THE ENVIRONMENT & PEOPLE, WE ALL HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO STOP THIS. UNITED and TOGETHER, WE DO HAVE THE POWER TO SAY NO & STOP THIS. "My doctrine is this: that if we see cruelty or wrong that we have the power to stop, and we do nothing, we make ourselves sharers in the guilt." Anna Sewell (English Novelist)
