The importance of Wednesday’s meeting with the Department of Planning cannot be overstated.
Planning Minister Tony Kelly is coming to Singleton to hear what this community has to say about the future of coal mining in Singleton and New South Wales.
The Hunter region contributes over 70 per cent of coal royalty revenue and employs around 68 per cent (over 10,000) of people in the NSW mining sector.
It is important that we all take this opportunity to voice an opinion that affects our future and that of future generations.
The meeting won’t be long. It is at the Civic Centre on Wednesday at 10.30am.
Speak up
Council’s plan to bare all through its community engagement strategy should prove to be an interesting process.
The success of this project relies on people to be honest, outspoken, forward thinking, a little flamboyant and enterprising, imaginative and to get engaged in the whole process.
If you have something to say, The Singleton Argus would love to hear.
