Subject: Saving Spring Creek Valley

 

Dear the Hon. Sonya Kilkenny,

 

I am writing to ensure that the government's pledge at the 2018 state election is honoured ahead of the next election.

 

In 2018, and re-iterated numerous times since, your Labor government has pledged to re-zone the land west of Duffields Road in Torquay to save the Spring Creek Valley from urban development.


The Spring Creek Valley holds precious remnant endangered native species of flora and fauna. The Surf Coast community have made it abundantly clear that we value the future of this unique landscape.

 

Our local community has put years of effort into this campaign and the final piece of the puzzle now sits with you, as minister.

 

Please prioritise this re-zoning and ensure that it is done, so that we can move ahead with preservation and restoration of the valley with certainty.

 

Kind regards,

Please email the following:
