Letter to the Editor: Left speechless by Jetty Foreshores plan


DEAR News Of The Area,

FOR once I am left speechless, Ann Leonard’s letter says it all!

Gurmesh Singh needs to pay less attention to Sydney politicians i.e. Steve Kamper, who fly up to Coffs Harbour for the day, and are arrogant enough to think they can make a decision which will affect us for the rest of our lives!

Instead, listen to us!

We pay the rates, we pay the taxes, we pay your salaries, and we are the decision makers.

Not you!

We live here because we value the natural beauty of the Coffs Coast, and for those of you who prefer overdevelopment, destruction of the natural environment, ugly high rises throwing a shadow over our beautiful beaches, then go back to Sydney or move to the Gold Coast!

Coffs Harbour locals appreciate how lucky we are, and we intend to protect our lifestyle at all costs!

Greedy developers who are eyeing the vacant beachfront land, forget it, not every inch of land is waiting for you to dig up, cement over, and restrict access to the rest of us.

There is a very good reason why regular visitors and tourists envy our lifestyle and keep coming back!

Regards,
Z. KOENIGSEDER,
Coffs Coast.
