"We the undersigned residents of Western Australia, object to the proposal by the Water Corporation to establish a Sewerage Pumping Station on Heseltine Park in Glenleigh Road, Busselton on the following grounds;

the site is inappropriate for such a facility,
the adverse impact on adjoining and nearby residents,
the park was originally established by the residents of Glenleigh Road and Blue Crescent and is currently maintained by them in conjunction with the Shire of Busselton,
the park offers a unique natural environment and public open space which is enjoyed by many residents and visitors and forms an integral part of the neighbourhood,
inadequacy of the process followed by the Water Corporation in the selection of the site, notification of interested stakeholders and consultation with the community.

We respectfully request the Legislative Council to reject this proposal and support the location of the sewerage pumping station at a more appropriate location in Busselton."
