New Brighton Farmers Market is an invasion of our community and needs to go!
The New Brighton Farmers Market is an invasion of privacy for locals and the impact is too much for our roads and nature reserve that are being treated like a car park. This is the wrong place for such a market and for this small community to continue having to tolerate it. Our roads see more traffic on Tuesday morning than all locals going to Coles for the whole week.
New Brighton, Ocean Shores and South Golden Beach are NOT tourist destinations. They are solely residential housing estates, so please, to the people that think we want this to be a tourist spot – you are very mistaken. Our local resources are struggling to keep up. So let’s take back our community, people, before it’s too late.
