PETITION UPDATE & ROADS FORUM

Welcome to the New Year.
 
Petition Update

We had much success over the Christmas and New Year period in respect to the compiling of names on petitions.  Petition forms were left at the Falls and most tourists more than happy to complete the form promoting the call for funding and reclassification of the road. 

The td8actiongroup were also out and about collecting names, and of course Christmas day was a great time to rally family and friends to the cause.

At this stage we appear to have well over a thousand names.

For those of you who have gathered names over the break if you could please forward to Sandra Kwa c/- Elands Post Office as soon as possible, that would be excellent.  We are keen to understand how many we have to hand so that we may start planning our submission to the State Government.

For those of you who are keen to assist if you could please print out the attached petition form and gather some names, that too would be excellent.  Remember we need the signature, name and address for the petition to be valid.

When you have gathered all your names please forward the forms to Sandra Kwa, c/- Elands Post Office, by no later than Monday 13th February 2012
