Target: Mark Regent, Project Director – Redbank
On the 8th of October the clearing of 158 old growth trees began on Grose Vale Rd.
For over a century, these trees have provided shade, shelter and habitat for the koalas, gliders and birds that call them home while contributing to the rural charm of the Hawkesbury.
Redbank contractors are cutting down these trees to widen Grose Vale Road for the influx of traffic brought on by the Redbank Development. The road will not be widened on the side of the Redbank site that is already cleared but instead, on council land, metres from established homes not associated with Redbank requiring the unnecessary clearing of trees and habitat.
While we have support from Councillor Wheeler, Zamprogno, Lyons-Buckett and the wider community, we need your signature to show Redbank that destroying the Hawkesbury’s environment is unacceptable.
Sign the petition now, demanding Redbank immediately stop the destruction of our precious environment.
