More than 80 stalwarts from Federal and Goonengerry unanimously voted last night (in the hottest evening this summer) to support a Gasfield Free Community initiative.
Road surveys will take place over the next few weeks with house-to-house doorknocks to gauge an accurate assessment of attitudes towards coal-seam gas and unconventional mining in these two rural areas. The results will later be made public
People who can help with the doorknock should call co-ordinator Jill Keogh on 6688 4558.
Keeping the community together and the community voice loud and clear is what The Echo is about. More than ever we need your help to keep this voice alive and thriving in the community.
Like all businesses we are struggling to keep food on the table of all our local and hard working journalists, artists, sales, delivery and drudges who keep the news coming out to you both in the newspaper and online. If you can spare a few dollars a week – or maybe more – we would appreciate all the support you are able to give to keep the voice of independent, local journalism alive.
