Submission to council re Poultry Farm at Ridgewood

5 August 2013

Attention: Sunshine Coast Council CEO, John Knaggs

Re: Proposed poultry farm at 136 Top Forestry Road, Ridgewood
MCU12/0184

Dear Mr Knaggs,

I am writing to express my strong support for the above application in the interests of
the former (and soon to be reinstated) Noosa shire community.

If successful, this proposal will help to ensure the future economic sustainability of
our district, with much-needed investment and local jobs at a time when many
businesses are struggling and unemployment is rising on the Coast.

I believe this application is consistent with the planning scheme and the wider
community view that we need to encourage clean, green industries in appropriately
zoned areas.

I know the applicant is a long-term resident with a proven track record in agribusiness
who has demonstrated his commitment to the Noosa district over many years.

I am confident the proposed poultry farm will have minimal impact on the
environment, local roads and residents, whilst offering significant and ongoing
benefits for the immediate and surrounding areas.

I urge you to give this application favourable consideration.

Yours sincerely,

Carolyn Tucker
