Poultry Farm Action Plan

At a recent meeting of the Association, where the poultry farm odour problems was discussed, the proposed action plan was put forward.

1) That affected residents start collecting information on the impacts that the poultry farms or any other activity that is causing an impact on your quality of life or amenity. This information needs to be collected systematically and recorded. We have produced a logsheet that will assist in the recording of any events.

2) That residents sign a letter to the City of Gosnells that requests they investigate the poultry farms to ensure that they are operating to best practice, and that the impacts are not dangerous, offensive, or injurious to health. The letter also calls for the establishment of a community reference group that will establish the framework for the investigation.

3) That residents sign a petition to the City of Gosnells that calls for the same action as the letter.

These resources are located at the following links:





It would be preferable that all completed letters / petitions / odour logs be returned to the Association so that we can consolidate them prior to submission. We are investigating other methods of reporting odours that will enable residents to make anonymous complaints if required.
