Going...Going... GONG

Last Long Weekend, Nigel $atterley, head of Australia's biggest private land development company, is probably choosing where to put his newest (and clearly heaviest, by the look of The West's photo!), Gong - the 2025 WA Business of the Year Award, courtesy of WA's Chamber of Minerals and Energy.

Hang on. Is Nigel $atterley a MINER?

The Nigel WE know wants to BULLDOZE 60,000 healthy, magnificent Jarrah and Marri trees, up to 200 years old, providing critical habitat for our Endangered Black Cockatoos, at so called 'North '$toneville'… land belonging to Perth’s Anglican Church.

The Chamber describes itself as "The leading advocate for the resources sector in WA."

Hang on. Are Perth's Hills now a 'RESOURCE???

Maybe Nigel's plans to blowup AN ENTIRE North $toneville HILL (true) to destroy its natural incline to conform with bushfire standards, and then moonscape and bitumise almost everything that's left for his URBAN HILLS development (minus the 'Hills' bit), across an area bigger than Kings Park, speaks the language of the Chamber?

Adding to his 'award winning business' credentials, Australia's Rich Lister is dragging WA taxpayers along his 6-year-long merry ride of appeals to overcome MULTIPLE WA Planning Commission, DFES, Mundaring Shire, Main Roads and City of Swan rejections, AND, 34 YEARS of relentless Community opposition, against a firetrap and destructive Hills plan.

Our Congrats to ALL the wonderful, worthy, West Australians justly recognised in this Year's WA Day Awards!  (minus Nigel)

And Congrats - every day of the year, to our incredible and wholesome Community whose commitment, unity and huge hearts are helping us all - Save Perth Hills!

Environment and Climate Forum

An uncannily-timed sunset chorus from Red Tailed Black Cockatoos, greeted Save Perth Hills as we attended a packed community Federal election forum in Kalamunda last night. Bullwinkel candidates, from the four major Parties (Nats, Greens, Liberal, Labor), were giving their closing election commitments on our environment.

Proposed North $toneville was a major talking point - with Save Perth Hills' 34-year-long effort to stop the Anglican Church's dangerous and destructive townsite, receiving rousing supportive applause.

If North $toneville is approved by WA's State Tribunal in September, Perth Hills will fall to unprecedented environmental destruction via an unstoppable roll out of firetrap urbanisation through this bio-diverse region.

All candidates, Liberals' Matt Moran, Nationals' Mia Davies, Labor's Trish Cook and Greens' Abbey Bishop, stated their opposition to the plan.

With election day closing in, we're featuring the Labor, Liberal and Nationals candidates as they appeared on Direct Democracy for Bullwinkel a few weeks ago. (At the time the Greens had not nominated Abbey Bishop, who last night added her voice of opposition.)

$atterley and the Anglican Diocese arrogantly ignore Climate Change warnings, including increasingly severe and frequent bushfires, and are consciously choosing to recklessly risk thousands of lives, bulldoze 60,000 trees, and fast-track Endangered species to extinction.

Whoever’s elected this weekend - we will be right beside them to end, forever, this insidious and dangerous plan...

The World's Longest City

This is very exciting!

Save Perth Hills is part of an important documentary - The World’s Longest City’ - about Perth’s relentless urban sprawl that’s now has Perth’s Hills in its destructive sights.

We ventured out with documentary maker Harry Cunningham to show him some of the 60,000 trees that will be bulldozed if $atterley’s dangerous North $toneville townsite goes ahead.

All kudos to Harry - who also managed to secure an interview with $atterley himself.

(Permission granted to groan loudly each time he appears…)

Join us at 7pm Thursday April 24 (ahead of the Anzac Day long weekend), for a special fund raising screening for SPH at Mundaring’s Kookaburra Outdoor Cinema.
