Honeysuckles

The proposed inclusion of the Honeysuckles in the Wellington Shire Coastal Subdivision Strategy on the grounds of global warming has hit the front pages of the Saturday Age, 28 June 2008. The article explains how one man stands to lose around $400,000 as a result of the Shire's actions. It also highlights how the Honeysuckles is a test case for the soon to be released Government-appointed Victorian Coastal Council's coastal strategy which is predicted to adversely affect property prices more widely around the Victorian coastline. This is a huge issue, with Australia-wide implications. The emergency meeting and the publicity was initiated via PRAGs network. See link below for article
