Dear Property Owner,
You would have received your copy of Coastal matters from Wellington Shire Council recently. You would have noticed from reading it that it is mainly about what the council are doing for themselves with our land. There is no reference in what they are doing for us as their ratepayers, and property owners. It is all doomsday material aimed at having us lose confidence in the value of our land, so that eventually with their town planning maneuvers our land will fall into their hands at no cost to them.
Well Our land has value and don’t let council propaganda make you think otherwise.
Don’t hand your blocks back to council.
One of our members had his block devalued by council to $200. He appealed this to the Valuer General who revalued his block at $10,000.
Be on the lookout for these council devaluations, and don’t accept them, because ultimately the authorities will use your valuation as a basis for compensation. (if they pay any compensation)
Our group was formed to tackle Wellington Council and State Government Head on.
For this we need your support. Write letters to the Minister for planning, Wellington Shire council, local and Melbourne newspapers. (Sample letters will be put on this site)
Support us financially. Membership fee is $25 per single or restructured block. If you want to join make your cheque to our treasurer Jennie Rafferty 0418 352 531 john_rafferty@bigpond.com
We are currently trying the political process through Peter Ryan (Member for Gipplsland and leader of the Nationals) and Mathew Guy (Liberal Planning spokesperson) to see if we can get a fair outcome. If that fails once the ministerial moratorium is over and a planning scheme is adopted, our next step will be in the courts for compensation.
Stay with us for the long haul. If you change any of your details please let us know so we are able to contact you.
Kind Regards
Charlie Grech
