TO: The Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland
The petition of residents of the State of Queensland draws to the attention of the House that the significantly used community, family waterfront club “The Port Douglas and District Combined Clubs" in Port Douglas is under threat by a proposed arbitrary planning agenda. The undersigned petitioners therefore request the House to intervene to prevent this movement, and for the Queensland Government to protect the site that is natural in its position and use, for family marine sports and social activities, and thus preserve its historical value for future generations.
