Letters to the Editor
11 Mar 10 | I WRITE to confirm that speculation over Bickham considering expanded underground mining near its proposed open cut mine is categorically wrong.
11 Mar 10 | ON behalf of the Bickham Coal Action Group, Peter Haydon asked 30 questions of the Bickham Coal Company with regard to their proposed mine.
11 Mar 10 | TRAFFIC lights when elsewhere they are coming out and being replaced by roundabouts.
11 Mar 10 | THE main reason given by the councillors who voted for the installation of traffic lights has been listed as safety for pedestrians.
03 Mar 10 | I SEE the debate for the Bickham project is finally coming to a head on March 17 and 18.
03 Mar 10 | I WAS quite stunned to read that the council has finally decided to rip up our fully functional roundabout and replace it with traffic lights.
03 Mar 10 | AS always your paper has reported to its readers an accurate account of proceedings re the Roundabout vs Traffic Lights in the Kelly St debate.
03 Mar 10 | THE Upper Hunter Shire’s narrow decision to support the installation of traffic lights in Scone is very disappointing as the opinion of their constituents has been totally disregarded by five of our elected representatives.
03 Mar 10 | I HAVE written three times to the Upper Hunter Shire Council requesting the councillors meet with concerned people of Bottlebrush Place and Honeysuckle Crescent.
03 Mar 10 | I HAVE read with interest letters in The Scone Advocate re the approval of the Kyoto Energy Park for Scone.
03 Mar 10 | I READ with interest about all the new things that are planned for Scone.
03 Mar 10 | THE SCONE ADVOCATE featured an article from a council press release, with a nice photo of the planted roundabout, Campbells Corner, and the great tree on Thursday, February 18.
25 Feb 10 | I WRITE in total support of John Ceeney’s excellent letter to the Editor in last week’s The Scone Advocate.

25 Feb 10 | WHY would EnergyAustralia against objections from Scone Landcare, Soil Conservation etc, and a signatoried letter from concerned people of Honeysuckle Cres and Bottlebrush Place sent to EnergyAustralia through our local member George Souris, carry on and put a new substation in our only water course, that already has a history of flooding?
25 Feb 10 | IT beggars belief that the Upper Hunter Shire Council’s Works and Technical Services Committee would opt for traffic lights ahead of a roundabout.
25 Feb 10 | IN view of the concern regarding the proposed Kyoto Energy Park the following passage from Clarissa Dickson Wright’s latest book may be of interest.
25 Feb 10 | I would like to thank The Scone Advocate for providing space in this newspaper for those who appreciate the serenity and beauty of the Upper Hunter to make a small cry in the wilderness against the industrialization of Scone.
25 Feb 10 | BEING a person of independent thinking and abilities, this weeks council meeting was very frustrating.
18 Feb 10 | WE people of Honeysuckle Cresent and Bottlebrush Place received a letter from the Upper Hunter Shire Council in Friday, February 2 stating reforming and development on land directly above our homes and submissions close on Wednesday, March 10.
18 Feb 10 | UNFORTUNATELY the approval of the Kyoto Energy Park was always going to happen.
