    Save Lawson Grasslands: Community Catch-Up

    In the face of strong community opposition, Defence Housing Australia is proposing to build over 15.8ha of critically endangered Natural Temperate Grassland and 1.31 ha of critically endangered Box Gum Woodland at Lawson North. Last year the proposal went through its first round of approvals under national environment legislation. Despite many submissions calling for the development to be stopped – it has proceeded to the next stage.
    Join us for a community catch-up to learn about the Save Lawson Grassland campaign’s next steps, while hanging out with friends, and painting some banners.
