COUNCIL DECISION ‘A VICTORY FOR COMMON SENSE’
The recent decision taken by Hornsby Shire Council to unanimously reject the application for a McDonald’s restaurant to be located on Pennant Hills Road at Pennant Hills was ‘both a win for people power and a victory for common sense’ according to local resident and Federal MP Philip Ruddock.
‘Clearly, the site on which McDonald’s was seeking to build was inappropriate for a whole range of reasons, including traffic congestion and noise concerns.’
‘I commend all those within the local community who felt strongly about the impact this development would have on our area and were prepared to raise their voices in protest.’
