Better Planning for Lee Point

To the Speaker and the Members of the Legislative Assembly of the Northern Territory

WE THE UNDERSIGNED RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH

We the undersigned are opposed to the current DHA housing project at Lee Point.

The community of the Northern Territory have identified that:

There are very few cities in the world that have a reserve like Lee Point on their doorstep. It makes Darwin a special place.

Lee Point peninsula is enjoyed by families, nature lovers, mountain bike riders, birdwatchers, fishermen, campers, bush walkers and tourists. It offers unique recreation and tourism opportunities to promote Darwin and is one of Darwin’s most important natural and cultural assets.

Lee Point is located 17 km from Darwin’s CBD on a five square kilometre peninsula which has helped conserve its natural beauty and biodiversity.
