When: Tuesday 24th November 2009, 12.30pm
Where: On the steps of Parliament House
Please come along and demonstrate your opposition to the Growth Areas Infrastructure Contribution (GAIC) legislation which is intrinsically tied to the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) expansion. We need ALL members and supporters to attend. Bring your family, friends and neighbours! For all of you with a sign on your fence, bring it along or make a new one.
We need to let Brumby and Madden know that we will not accept their bad policy, ignorance of public opinion, and "smoke and mirrors" tactics.
If this legislation is passed many people will have the value of their properties and their life's work destroyed. A GAIC stamp on your title makes it next to worthless until development is imminent which could be up to 20 years away. Do you have 20 years to wait? Do you think its fair to have your right to sell your property when you choose, and to whom, stripped away? Do you think this is a FAIR tax for Victorians? If you answered NO you need to be at our rally!
