This used to be intact coastal forest, an endangered ecological community and key fauna habitat. This area was cleared in 2005 for the current Fern Bay housing development (bad karma to anyone who buys into it) and the community is outraged at news that the Minister for Planning has just approved another 900 lots... that means tens of more hecatres of endangered coastal forest at Fern Bay lost to urban landclearing. If you're angry, let him know... CALL Frank Sartor (02) 9228 4700

"A little learning is a dangerous thing;
drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring:
there shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
and drinking largely sobers us again."

— - Alexander Pope (1688-1744)
