Matthew Owens, Director of City Planning Hawkesbury has kindly agreed to give his time and will be giving a presentation on the new “Gateway” process that is being used now in the approval for rezoning of land. The remainder of the development at 108 Grose Vale Road will come under this new process so it is imperative that we understand it so that we can make informed submissions/comments on the development.

Please come along and bring your family and friends too, we must continue to show public interest and concern or your opinions will continue to be discounted by the Liberal Party caucus on Hawkesbury City Council.

A petition has been organized – it can be signed at the meeting or if your prefer you can do it on-line http://nrdcaa.blogspot.com/ or just “google” nrdcaa .
