The Deagon/Sandgate Race Track
Hi all
When
I started the Save The Deagon Racecourse Facebook Group it was for the sole purpose of Saving Deagon Race track
and the lifestyle that I enjoy in this area. I am so glad to see that
the group is engaging in strong discussions to help save what is dear to
us.Every body has done a great job in researching and discovering new
things about Deagon. Information and research has evoled and the message
that this development will wreck Sandgate Deagon Brighton and surrounds
has become a major story but only a select group of people has this
message and they are members of this group and friends. The main
population is only getting the message on how good the redevelopment
will be for the area with no counter message from any one.
Now is the time to step it up a notch and get this counter message out there,
This group needs to do some
things to spread the message to ALL the residents not just those in
Sandgate /Deagon area but all in the Northern Bayside areas as this will
effect (in some way ) all suburbs of North Brisbane From Albion to
Redcliffe.
I feel that these are
1.
Elect,appoint , nominate a spokesperson for the group that can be a
media contact so that the group can comment on Racing Queensland
proposals
2. Start a letter writing campaign to news media
TV Radio etc. Start a letter writing campaign to all the papers local
and national. Maybe 4017 group help to develop a form letter or session
to help people with letter writing to newspapers as well as submissions
to Council
3. Talk to all political people local state and
federal. All LNP & ALP anyone that will help in our cause. Also
those in neighboring areas and wards.
4. Have a community
meeting to get the message out what it will mean to have THIS
development happens pointing out the bad and allowing the people to have
a balanced argument so that they can form a balanced view.
Any thing to get the message out there, as at the moment the ONLY
Message on this development is that of Racing Queensland and that
message is very slick.
With limited budget I feel that this is
the only way to get the message out and counter act the effects of RQ
and help to stop them destroy our lifestyle and way of life.
WE ALL HAVE TO ACT because if left only that message of RQ eventually
the attitude of the local people may change and that will not benefit
anyone except RACING QUEENSLAND
