Petition addressed to: Snowy Monaro Regional Council

A development application is seeking to have a truck/freight depot on Lots 307 and 308, DP750535, Carlaminda Road, Cooma. This land is currently prime rural land, Zone RU1, and surrounded by small to medium-sized rural properties that actively farm the country with livestock.

Reason

Residents of Carlaminda Road are calling for your support to oppose this development.

The proposal is for 38 truck + trailer movements per day - creating noise, dust, traffic hazards, road deterioration, and visual impact on the rural setting. This land is rural land - not industrial!

Council voted on 18 December 2025 to not allow the truck/freight depot to proceed. The Councillors voted 6:5 against the development.

A rescission motion has been lodged by three Councillors to have the development proposal presented again on 19 February 2026.

By signing this petition, you will tell Council that you also oppose this development.

Thank you so much for your support, Barbara Menchin, Cooma
