To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of
Queensland

The petition of the following residents of the State of Queensland draws
to the attention of the House our concerns as to the potential quality of
life and environmental impact of the proposed Paradise Lagoons livestock
feedlot, on Nine Mile Road, Alton Downs. We object to a feedlot of this
size and nature being developed in such close proximity to homes and
properties as well as to Rockhampton’s water storage facility.

Your petitioners therefore request the House to ensure that relevant
government departments take seriously the concerns of residents and do
everything in their power to see that this proposal does not proceed.
