Hi Everyone!! I will try my best to keep this as short as possible, I just don't know where to start so bare with me on this one 🙏😕 and please share so this heartbreaking news can get around and hopefully we can get some more support because no one in council or government seem to care.
Our house along with 15 others in Indigo Way are planned to be demolished to make way for multi story units. Yes, of all places they could do it and they choose right here.
We have been here for 44 years and have given the community our beautiful Christmas Display for over 25 years (which we believe has gotten better and better over the years that continues to WOW everyone that gets to see it). Not only us, quite a few neighbours have also been here for 30+ years too and without them putting up with the traffic, noise and flashing lights every year, none of this would've been possible. We all get along and look out for each other in this lower end of Indigo Way
We have ALL been given till January to relocate and even been threatened this last week with eviction or even arrested if we do not comply.
We (the neighbours and ourselves) have been through a rough couple of weeks trying to go through the right and legal way of fighting this and seem to hit a brick wall at every turn. Petitions, emails to government entities, face to face talks with Stephen Bali (the local MP) and Homes NSW are seeming to be failing so maybe a public outcry through our Christmas Display might help, hence me posting this here now.
A minority of affected neighbours are ok with being relocated and thats fine with us, but the majority DO NOT!!.
We have a signature petition here at our house right now for anyone to sign if interested.
If we loose this fight, we probably won't even be able to do our display this year, despite the fact we are already 25% done already for this year.
Just be prepared to cross Indigo Way off your list of nights out looking at Christmas Display houses, not only this year, but forever.
I will give an update when we know more 😢😢😢.
Thank you and lets see what happens now if we all band together as a community 🙏🤞🫶.
