It was moved to its current location, Big Ant Broken Hill next to the Tourist Information Centre in Broken Hill, after being donated to the city in 1990. Located in the middle of an orchard about 3km north of Batlow, without public Big Apple Batlow access. Only its top is visible from Batlow- Tumut Road, as it is largely blocked by apple trees. Big Apple Yerrinbool Visible from the Hume Highway Big Avocado Duranbah Located at Tropical Fruit World. Located alongside the Kew Visitor Information Centre. The original sculpture The Big Axe Kew was replaced in 2002 as a result of ant induced damage. This 1/40 scale model of Uluru was formerly an attraction at Leyland Brothers World, and now forms the roof of the Rock Restaurant. Technically not a "Big Big Ayers North Arm Cove Thing" (as it is substantially smaller than Rock the item it is modelled on), the Rock Restaurant is loosely grouped with the big things as an object of roadside art.

  • From: Tony Moore
    From: Tony Moore [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, 27 February 2020 8:10 PM To: DPE PSVC Central Coast Mailbox Subject: 2020 03 10 Moore, Tony Individual Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 Review Categories: Reply Sent The Director Central Coast and Hunter Region Department of Planning, Industry and Environment PO Box 1148 GOSFORD NSW 2250 Email: [email protected] Dear Director, Submission in relation to the Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 review. I understand and agree that my submission will be made public. The statement below represents my personal opinion pertaining to the act review: In any discussion about the WAR act and its relevance to current operations at Warnervale airport it is essential to determine what the original intention of the act is. If we accept as a given that the purpose of the act is to protect local residents from undue aircraft noise and the impact that large aircraft operations would have on the environment then it is easy to mount an argument that the ACT is totally irrelevant. It is easy to establish that for geographical, economic and logistical reasons operations of large aircraft would not be feasible at Warnervale. Contrary to the ‘scare campaign’ being run by a select few individuals, the reality of the situation is that we will never see ‘747’ aircraft operating out of our small, regional airport. It is indeed due to such a ‘scare campaign’ run in the 1990’s by in some cases the same individuals that the ACT came into existence. For the last twenty odd years the airport has had the ‘scimitar’ of the act hanging over its head with the resultant lack of security and tenure for the Aero club.

We don't need one for people to travel out because most would use Sydney. But, like Tamworth, Dubbo and other major centres, we need one for people to come in. It would be a major boost for tourism on the coast if people could have a quick way of getting to the coast for a holiday. And think of the business people who would benefit from a fast trip to the coast for a business conference. It doesn't need big planes, just one like REX and Qantas use for their regional flights. Look at Coffs Harbour airport which is a good comparison to the Central Coast. Just big enough for traffic to fly from Sydney.

  • From: John and Jacqui Hogan
    From: John and Jacqui Hogan [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, 3 February 2020 4:47 PM To: DPE PSVC Central Coast Mailbox Subject: Submission re retaining the Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 intact Categories: Reply Sent Re Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 Review The Director Central Coast and Hunter Region Department of Planning, Industry and Environment PO Box 1148 GOSFORD NSW 2250 03/02/2020 Submission requesting retention and strengthening of the Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996. Dear Director, The Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 is all that stops airport proponents from proceeding with development of a Warnervale Regional Jet airport. Upgrading Warnervale to accomodate large jet planes would indeed make a considerable difference to our lives. Having lived close to an airport (RAAF Base Richmond) while my husband was a serviceman we know what it is like to live with the constant noise aircraft make. Please consider the reasons as set out below and uphold and support The Warnervale Airport Act 1996. The Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 should be fully supported, as resolved by nine of fourteen Central Coast Councillors in November 2017 and retained with additional controls, as proposed by the previous NSW Planning Minister Anthony Roberts and Lake Macquarie City Council. I request that you: Retain the Act with additional controls on any future development of any description, including community consultation and rigorous environmental assessment, all determined by an impartial body, as proposed by the previous Planning Minister Anthony Roberts in August 2017. The Act is all that has prevented airport proponents from expanding Warnervale at various times in the past 23 years.

  • Department of Planning NSW Director Regions, Hunter and Central Coast PO Box 1148 Gosford NSW 2250 26.05.16
    Department of Planning NSW Director Regions, Hunter and Central Coast PO Box 1148 Gosford NSW 2250 26.05.16 Dear Director Review of the NSW Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 This Act was introduced to restrict the development of Warnervale Airport, thereby protecting the amenity of residents living around the airport and the environment of the adjacent wetlands and waterways. We, the Central Coast Greens, think the Act should be retained because it is achieving its aims of restricting the development of the Warnervale Aerodrome and it is ensuring a proper process to protect the pre-existing amenity of the residents of Wyong Shire. The environment, aircraft noise and a curfew are all restrictions we believe the Act serves to protect. The Act has achieved its aims for the past twenty years and continues to do so in a most efficient manner and therefore, in our opinion, must be retained, whilst ever the Warnervale Airport exists. If the status of Warnervale Airport is altered to another airport classification and category, there is , in the absence of this Act, no way of protecting the interests of the residents and the environment within those categories. The Act aligns with many of the Central Coast Regional Plan Goals, it is already in place and its retention requires no further work or cost to Wyong Shire Council, the NSW Government or the residents. While we understand that the purpose of this regular and scheduled review is to examine if the Warnervale Airport Restrictions Act ’96 should remain or the airport moved to a different general classification, we believe this decision is impossible to make unless we take a holistic view of the airport, it's operations and the possible alternative uses that have already been planned for the airport site by Wyong Shire Council* and the State Government.
