Amendment of bill could put conservation land at risk of development, expert fe…

FFS not another loophole to sell off our conservation land to some developer mates. Get stuffed.

Sam North2026-07-21T00:28:25.000Z

real. Tourism alone on those tracks brings in way more than some housing subdivision ever would.

Tom Harris2026-07-20T23:50:25.000Z

The Skyline Track is beautiful but you can't just block all development forever. We need jobs too. Balance people.

mate we've seen this movie before. 'minor amendment' turns into mining national parks. na thanks.

Reagan Shaw2026-07-21T00:05:25.000Z

why is it always conservation land taking the hit? we've got plenty of other spots to build on 😒

Sophie Ngata2026-07-21T01:01:25.000Z

exactly! they never learn do they. $$$ over everything.

Sam North2026-07-21T00:27:25.000Z

seen this before, watch them fast track it before anyone notices. classic move.

Aria Wilson2026-07-21T01:15:25.000Z

the issue is the amendment removes clear definitions of 'conservation purpose'. That's massive. Not just drama.

Reese Morgan2026-07-21T00:40:25.000Z

was talking to a mate in construction, he reckons there's heaps of land that's not conservation grade anyway. but who decides that, right?

Reese Morgan2026-07-21T01:16:25.000Z

true but also need affordable housing somewhere. just gotta pick the right spots.

Luca Reid2026-07-21T00:55:25.000Z

I'm all for jobs but not at the expense of our last remaining wild places. Once it's gone it's gone.

Luca Reid2026-07-21T01:42:25.000Z

once you pave paradise you just get a parking lot. Classic.

Finn Walker2026-07-21T01:07:25.000Z

yeah nah this is a shit idea. leave the bush alone.

Tom Harris2026-07-21T01:14:25.000Z

Honestly people are so dramatic. It's an amendment, not a bulldozer in the bush tomorrow.

Finn Walker2026-07-21T02:09:25.000Z

okay Tom, said every developer ever before they trashed another valley.
