Targa Petition to the Council
On Wednesday night 17th February I
presented a petition with 483 signatures to the Chittering Shire Council's
Ordinary Meeting calling for the Council to rescind its previous motion and
allow the Targa West Rally to continue to operate in the Shire. At the same
meeting the Council was asked if they had a register of opponents to the rally
and the answer was "no". When asked how do they justify the statement that the
majority of residents object to the rally, the Shire President referred to the
results of the Council's Call for Comment which resulted in 74 against and 19
for the rally and could not provide any other evidence that could be
substantiated.
Clearly, the TRUE majority of the peoples wishes can no
longer be disputed. The Council should immediately rescind the previous motion
and reinstate the approval to allow the rally to run in the Shire once again. If
the Council does not act on this petition and reinstate the rally, then they are
NOT representing the people of their community.
