I would like to submit our objection to the proposed Solar Farm 1000 Burkes Creek Rd, The Rock
DA 24/0452, Ref: PPSSTH-469. Firstly, to approve this DA, then WWCC are assisting in the destruction of
prime agricultural and grazing land. The area proposed has a reliance on agriculture due to its topography,
soil type and rainfall. It will impact on property values now and in the future. We are concerned about the impact on the eco-system of Burkes Creek, on native habitat, birdlife, salinity, & destroyed vegetation.
We object to productive farmland becoming a barren glass and metal eyesore.
Wagga Wagga already has an industrial hub at Bomen and surely this area would be more suitable for a
development like this. We are also currently opposing the proposed development of a Solar Farm at Maxwell, which is adjacent to our property. What will be the future plans when it is time to decommission and dispose of these solar panels and comply with Environmental Act 1999. We have many other objections, but are saddened by a few people succumbing to this type of proposal without considering their farming neighbours.
