No Thanks, Coldstream does not want it either!



Below is a response from Jeanette regarding the artice in the previous post!


I wish to respond to Belinda Goodwin's letter to the Editor 'VCAT right to trash tip'.

I find it offensive that Belinda considers it okay to 'move it to Coldstream' -Coldstream is a hidden jewel in the Shire and home to many valued residents and businesses equally entitled to use their backyards, their homes and business spaces without the pervading stench.

An apology to the Coldstream community would be appreciated!

Thank you Councillor McRae.
I was stunned when I read Belinda Goodwin's opinion. Coldstream residents have been fighting for 3 years for the right to clean air, not only for Coldstream, but Lilydale, Chirnside Park and surrounding areas that have been inundated with pollution stench released from the ANL Composting site. Enough is enough.

Belinda, take a wander up the road and meet some of the people that have been standing up for your rights to clean air and see if you still feel the same.
