Reports
MS23.11 Additional Investigations - Yerriyong Motoplex Site |
HPERM Ref: D23/398276 |
It was noted that it would be beneficial, at the appropriate time, to reaffirm support from the Local Aboriginal Land Council regarding development on the site. The Group discussed the control of the permissive occupancy, which currently sits with Nowra District Motorcycle Club Ltd, with Motorcycling NSW as the sole member. It was noted that they no longer have interest in further developing the site. The Group therefore resolved to invite the past members of the Nowra District Motorcycle Club Ltd to attend the next meeting to discuss the control of the permissive occupancy of the site. |
