  The Assessment Manager,


  I’m writing in support of the Wimmers factory relocating to the old brickworks site on Lake Macdonald Drive
  for the following reasons
           Jobs will stay in the area
           The economy of the area will remain stable
           The site will generate less traffic than the brickworks
           Some of the buildings on the site will remain (recycling)
           There has been an industry (brickworks) on that site for as long as I’ve lived in the area and it
            has never caused me any concern or inconvenience. The manufacture of soft drinks should have
            even less of an impact on our day to day lives than the brickworks.
           I don’t believe that the manufacture of soft drink will generate any more environmental degreda-
            tion than brick making.
           There will be rehabilitation of the site - revegetating etc.
           There will be a museum documenting the history of Wimmers and the brickworks. Maybe in the
            future it could be expanded to include memorabilia and history of Cooroy.
           Wimmers site in Cooroy will be freed up for a commercial operation more suited to a township.
           The site will be visually pleasing
  I therefore support Wimmers relocating to the old brickworks site.
