STOP DCC landfill in Brighton's creek catchment

KIA KAHA - PROTECT DUNEDIN'S FAVOURITE SWIMMING BEACH

Please chip in for the legal fight against the city council. A council that we believe is not walking the talk when it comes to protecting New Zealand waterways.

We love our waterways and we care about our beaches.

The DCC cannot guarantee the lifespan of the proposed landfill's liner and any risk of toxic leachate spreading through Brighton's creek and beach, is unacceptable. Brighton is the favourite go-to swim spot for Dunedin's families with young children every summer, and the Ōtokia Creek is home to threatened native New Zealand fish species, including; Longfin Eels, Banded Kōkopu, Giant Kōkopu, and Koura Freshwater Crayfish, just to name a few.

Council is seeking a limited notification consent process. We need funds now to get the lawyers letters flowing, and encourage the ORC to make this a fully notified consent process so the public can have its say and voice their concerns.

Your financial support means you are in the fight to protect our creeks and beaches.

Your kids and grandkids will thank you for protecting the favourite swimming spot of your parents and grandparents .

Please do your part to fight the Dunedin City Council, and stop them building a massive landfill at the headwater of the Ōtokia Creek.
