1. I moved to Minchinbury 33 years ago because it had clean air, open spaces and a sense of community. I would never have built my home here or raised my children if the area had a waste facility that would spew toxic particles and vapour into our surrounding air. It’s enough that the flight plans from the proposed Western Sydney Airport will create noise and air pollution in our area. We were told decades ago that when the Waste Facility at Eastern Creek was full, that it would be closed, ending what has been an ongoing issue with bad odours emitting from the waste. We do not want to add an Energy From Waste plant in our area as well. We are being treating us as second class citizens. This would never happen in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, as it should never happen in Sydney’s Greater Western Suburbs. We want a healthy quality of life, not one that is determined by people who profit from polluting our surrounding environment. I oppose this proposal because no one cannot absolutely guarantee that my plant and vegetable gardens will be free from contamination, that our drinking water will not be contaminated, that toxic plumes will not be emitted, that air pollution will not be visible and that my health will not be negatively impacted. No risk is worth my quality or longevity of life outcomes.
