To all the people who came to the developer's public meeting in March, and/or the FOMRE/GCA workshop the following weekend, a big thank you.

Also an even bigger thank you to so many who wrote submissions to Gingin Shire regarding Moore River Company's Outline Development Plan.

We have made our feelings about the inadequacies in this plan very clear. We can now only hope that the Shire will take notice of our advice and ensure the plan is improved in many ways before any approval is considered.  Ultimately, we believe it should be rejected outright.

For your information, we have posted four of the submissions in the 2012 ODP SUBMISSIONS menu above.  They are our official FOMRE submission as well as those sent by The Gingin Water Group, our Deputy Convenor Gillian Lamont and Mr Ernie Samec's legal opinion.

Some WA MPs have contacted us to advise of correspondence received from the Moore River Company setting out the "facts" from their perspective.  We have now written to all WA MPs with our perspective on the "facts" and we understand some MPs intend to raise pertinent Planning and Environmental questions in Parliament.  Both letters are available from "THE FACTS" menu links above.

Guilderton is quietening down now after the holiday season so I hope you can get up there for some peace and quiet over the cooler months.

Yours ever hopefully,

Linda Johnson (Convenor)
