Did you realise just how many beautiful and rare Australian animals call the proposed North Stoneville site ‘home’? So many!!

These are just a handful who could lose their home - and their lives, with $atterley’s dangerous & destructive North $toneville disaster plan.

Many are nocturnal - others are really tiny, all are precious and part of our unique local environment.

We’re featuring more of these amazing creatures with you over the next few days...

WHY?? Because they need YOUR HELP...

⚡️ACTION ⚡️

Satterley’s Environment report is now open to scrutiny and comment - YOUR comments can help SAVE the home of our local native animals via the EPBC (Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act). We’ve done the heavy lifting for you and compiled a helpful EPBC fact sheet to help you respond (link at the bottom).

Submissions are due on the 2nd October 2020.Ironically, the submissions are sent to $atterley (email address below) who in turn must respond with a public report on the submissions - so we are asking - please Cc your submission to Save Perth Hills and the Federal and State Environmental Departments to help us maintain transparency over this process.

Over the next few days Save Perth Hills will be bringing to light some of the amazing creatures that we share the hills with. It’s incredibly humbling to see even a small sample of these animals shown together in this way.

It’s pretty simple - developments must plan for the impact of fire. We have to change the urban model and put an end to unsafe, urban sprawl in fire prone areas.


We saw it in Australia’s Black Summer of 2019/2020 and we’re seeing fire devastation play out once again on the west coast of the USA... which is another reminder of our own situation. Rita Saffioti MLA, Mark McGowan, please put an end to the $atterley appeal to the State Administrative Tribunal on North $toneville. It is a dangerous proposal and is simply not fire safe.

⚡️Update on the $atterley appeal of the WAPC Rejection of SP34 (AKA North Stoneville)⚡️

The deadline for Rita Saffioti MLA to ‘call in’ the $atterley appeal process has passed 🤦‍♂️ This means the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) will preside over the appeal process… And it also means we all get to Save Perth Hills for just a little longer… We’ve come this far 💪

The thing is, the honourable minister has “ministerial powers” to involve herself at any stage of the process and still call it in!

Rita Saffioti MLA, c’mon… you know a bad plan when you see one. The community, the Shire of Mundaring, the WAPC, your political colleagues and opponents have all said NO to this disastrous plan… allowing SP34 to go any further is not a good look for you or WA Labor.

As we all watch California burn, our collective attention turns to the summer risks we here in the Perth Hills all live with. Adding to Perth’s urban sprawl won’t keep us fire safe.

So, if you haven’t written to Rita - you still can. In fact you can message her monthly, weekly, daily if you like. If you have written, did you hear back? Share your responses in the comments below 👍



 
 
 

Plan for the future, not the past, and safeguard Perth Hills bushfire prone communities.
