You can still ride in the RVA mate
It's to protest no camping and high dunes access
The only 4x4ing on Stockton is the in RVA and beach front. no high dune access, so because of this it gets a bit dangerous and crowded with everyone in the same area and you can't camp at all ..
If they open it up hopefully it will become less crowded in the RVA

What a absolute joke.
Hello tree hangers it's sand, the wind blows it away.
Can't drive can't ride can't camp. Is this Australia or not.

You can rent it and mine it too!
Freehold or leasehold, don't matter to them!

The area that will be mined is already off limits .. The problem was they couldn't get the sand out. They have obviously figured that out now ..
The RVA will still be there and with the very limited section of the dunes that we are allowed to use you may not see the mine at all

Oh its so amazing what money does.So let me guess the worrmi people didnt walk this part of stockton (where the mine will be)thousands of years ago an leave there sh*t around,its ok to mine there we wont dig anything up.But oh my god one of my tiny tyers may dig up uncle boogaloo's buriel site a coulple klms the other way!!!! come on people This is a fu*king disgrace.Im so sick and tired of trying to not sound racist and be polite an tip toe around this subject but how can i respect these people when they are such fu*king hypocrits.Sand will blow onto the runway in a hundred years correctme if im wrong but the shifting dunes that we want are much closer to the main road than the runway. I seriously doubt i can keep going to the rta to pay these jokers. Im gunna try my hardest to get a property of my own one day. An just keep ridin the dunes of belmont,( until the flood of 4x4's an atvs from stockton) get a lock put down here but what can ya do?? Fu*king joke is all it is ive had my rant lol.

extract from the death of the Kurnell Dune System.
Sand mining
In 1933 the Sutherland Shire Council asked the Government to set aside the 2,000 acres (8.1 km2) between Cronulla Golf Club and Kurnell as a reserve. In April 1937, Haymarket Land and Building Co. offered Sutherland Shire Council 720 acres (2.9 km2) of land near the entrance to Kurnell for 8 pounds per acre. Most of the councillors wanted to declare the site a National Park. They wanted it to be titled "the Birthplace of Australian History and Gateway to Captain Cooks Landing Place." The dunes at Towra Point were to be included in this park. The Council was evenly split, but Joe Monro, the Council's President [now referred to as the Mayor], argued that because the site "was nothing but sand it was completely useless". He decided to vote against the purchase. The sandhills were doomed from that point. The Government couldn't see any reason to establish another National Reserve so near to Captain Cooks Landing Place Reserve.
In the 1930s the Holt family began its sand mining operations to supply the expanding Sydney building market and continued until 1990 with an estimate of over 70 million tonnes of sand being removed. The sand has been valued for many decades by the Sydney building industry, mainly because of its high crushed shell content and lack of organic matter. The site has now been reduced to a few remnant dunes and deep water-filled pits which are now being filled with demolition waste from Sydney's building sites. Removal of the sand has significantly weakened the peninsula's capacity to resist storms. Ocean waves pounding against the reduced Kurnell dune system have threatened to break through into Botany Bay, especially during the storms of May and June 1974 and August, 1998

Uncle Boogaloo, what a crack up!
This Port Stephens council set-up is just like like Harzard County being run by Boss Hogg.
You wait and see. Any time soon alleged remnants of Aunty Boogaloo will be found in the sand hills at Belmont. |
