The Byron Shire Council’s only conservative member has announced his running team for September’s local government elections.

There’s a new chapter in the long- running dispute with neighbours and a Byron Shire councillor’s self-storage operation on a short, narrow rural road in Myocum.

A Byron Shire councillor’s storage facility on a short quiet Myocum road is still causing headaches for residents, but they aren’t giving up the fight.

Byron Shire councillor Alan Hunter is again facing the ire of residents near his Pinegroves Road, Tyagarah, property after seeking to extend the hours of operation of his controversial road transport terminal.

A councillor who is in favour of the Byron bypass along Butler Street has lectured affected residents on their opposition to the proposal, telling them, ‘We have to do more than just complain about change’.
