WILL THIS DEVELOPMENT THREATEN THE YAMBA YOU LOVE?
We all love Yamba, the lifestyle, the nature, the people.
Yamba sits on an ecologically sensitive estuary and coastal flood plain, it is not suitable for large scale, urban development and excessive population growth!
If you live in the Lower Clarence you may have heard about the mass development proposed for the floodplain and wetlands just South of Yamba Road.

TO HELP US, HELP YOU.
IT'S NOT JUST YAMBA.
ITS THE LOWER CLARENCE AT RISK
Our goal is to work with Council, to seek the best outcome for the West Yamba development and outlaw any future developments on unsuitable wetlands.
Growth is inevitable, we understand that. We are simply seeking sustainable management of the developments with community interests being paramount.
