PETITION: Land Handover To UTAS

 Launceston ratepayers going to be robbed of Millions of $$$ 
 LCC intend to GIVE (not sell) Willis St, Car Park and Old Velodrome site to the University of Tasmania for NOTHING, not 1cent WHY?  
  The Willis St. Car Park returns $88,000 p.a. and that will be gone too and without 1cent compensation thus contributing to higher rates in the future  WHY?
  LCC now involved with building bridge from Willis St. over Nth. Esk River to Inveresk, costing $millions thus contributing to higher rates in the future  WHY? 
  Willis St and Velodrome Car Parks to go – 600 car spaces go – where will patrons to Aurora Stadium Park? LCC don’t know or care thus thus contributing to higher rates in the future   WHY?
  Who is going to pay for new car parks to cater for 1,000 cars from Newnham Campus (4,500 students) to Inveresk. LCC don’t know or care  WHY? 
  LCC have spent $ thousands of Ratepayers money on this project so far (staff hours and money) but no compensation thus contributing to higher rates in now and the future  WHY?
  WHY weren’t Ratepayers consulted with Public Meeting to discuss these issues? The LCC did not want you to know the truth  WHY?
  These two prime parcels of land could bring $10million each on the open market – why should Council give them away FREE? 
  Ratepayers demand $20million compensation for land and associated costs
  Selling the two parcels of land would enable LCC to give Ratepayers 3 years with NO INCREASE in rates and a surplus to pay off $millions of loan debt thus mitigating against higher rates in the future
  LCC rates are already $300-$400 higher than for equivalent properties in surrounding Councils  WHY?
  Universities DO NOT pay rates or fire levy  WHY?
Act now-don’t take this nonsense any longer 
You and your neighbours please sign the Petition NOW!
