We need our fire stations. It is careless to put our lives at risk in this way. Cut our politicians little extras here and the and we would have more than enough funds.

Every fire station is important and needed.

Because no fire station should be closed down, they are vitally important to each and every community to ensure fast response times.

Fires this season have been crazy, as a local and constantly driving through the burnt out areas I believe we need as many fire stations as possible. The recent fire near Kurri Kurri, Western and Heddon Greta got too close to houses, lives could have been lost.

I live in Weston and we need our fire station especially when we have had several fires in Weston over the last few weeks!

(Weston, 2017-01-23)

#418

We need this fire station open, yesterday's kurri fires are a perfect example why.

(Heddon Greta , 2017-01-23)

because essential services should not be moved out of communities that need them

(East Maitland, 2017-01-23)

#424

We need the station to be open as who is going to be looking after that area

(Branxton , 2017-01-23)

It is discraceful that a local fire station close when we need more, the local population isn't decreasing yet the vital services that the fire service provide is going to take longer to arrive potentially risking lives seriously wake up and give the locals the support they need

Fire stations should not be shut. The amount of bush and acreage around Weston needs more than 1 fire station open!

(Dungog, 2017-01-23)

#429

I am building at Weston and the the fires came so close . We need a local fire station

No local fire station should be closed down ! who knows when it could be that minute that if this station is closed down that a life could be lost or a home totally destroyed ? we need to keep as many fire stations open to ensure that our family friends neighbours and the community have the best possible chance of survival !!

We need out Fire Station to remain open the area and population is growing and we need our own not have to rely on Kurri Kurri or Abermain as by the time they get to a Fire it may be too late. Weston saved houses in our street with the bushfires before Xmas and we just need them. Don't think no politicians have the right to make these decisions they don't live here or care about us.

(Weston , 2017-01-23)

Due to the amount of arson in this area it is imperative for the community to have the resources to save lives and property.

(Carrington, 2017-01-23)

#452

We need to keep our rural fire stations

(Paxton, 2017-01-23)

#456

We are in a huge bushfire proned area. We need more fire stations not less. Please reconsider

(abernethy , 2017-01-23)

#465

I'm signing because the community deserves to be kept safe by their local fire fighters.

(Metford, 2017-01-24)

#466

Should not go

(Aberglasslyn, 2017-01-24)

#469

Emergency services such as a fire station should remain opened... extra trucks and man power will go a long way in an event of an emergency .... ( more so Cessnock way with all the fires lately )

(Raymond terrace , 2017-01-24)

#470

Why. Just build a new station at Abermain & leave the one at Weston. Gives you double protection.

(2330, 2017-01-24)

#472

I believe we need all Fire Stations. Closing a fire station to save money will not save lives

(Wyee, 2017-01-24)

#474

I know the importance of a local fire brigade in every town it could mean the difference of life or death

(Anna Bay, 2017-01-24)

We need more stations not less, these are high fire areas.

(Salt Ash, 2017-01-24)

Im in a smallish town that was saved by having our local brigade here. Weston needs to keep its station in service

(Medowie, 2017-01-24)

(Lovedale, 2017-01-24)

We desperately need to keep the fire stations that we have. Especially out where we have loads of fires! Crazy to close this one!

(Newcastle , 2017-01-24)

#497

Closing down a station in an area that needs it the most is just incomprehensible

(Newcastle , 2017-01-24)

#498

Do not close Weston fire station. This area has big fires every year.

(Charlestown , 2017-01-24)

#499

(Willowbank, 2017-01-24)

#502

With all the bush around the Weston, Kurri Kurri and cessnock areas and all the new houses going in we need the fire stations open not closed or moved because the government wants to save money by putting peoples lives at tisk

(Kurri Kurri, 2017-01-24)

#505

(raymond terrace, 2017-01-24)

#506

I have family that live in Weston and kurri, and with all the fires lately Weston fire station is a much needed station

(Beresfield, 2017-01-24)

#508

I've lived here all my life and the amount of bushland here is huge. We need it to stay open to save lives and properties

(Weston , 2017-01-24)

#511

the citizens of Weston NSW. There should never be any firestation closures in areas where fire is almost a given, every summer. Tell the NSW politicians to get their stinking greedy hands off our rural services and safety nets.

It doesn't matter of you don't live close by, what matters is that the citizens of NSW, particularly Hunter & Central Coast continue to push back against the madness of so many services closing down or being sold off to fund corrupt politicians pet projects.

(Central Coast, 2017-01-25)

#513

We need all the fire stations that we have!!!

(Cooranbong , 2017-01-25)

#514

I live in weston and back onto the creek. So many times in the last 20 years weston fire station has come to the rescue. We need this service

(Weston, 2017-01-25)

#516

We need this station to stay operational as its closure will cause longer response times which will put people and property at high risk!

(Kurri Kurri , 2017-01-25)

#519

We need all the fire houses we can get

(Aberglasslyn , 2017-01-25)

#520

Feel that we need this station with the number of fires this year that we need all hands

(Kurri kurri, 2017-01-25)

#522

Cause they need it and it is just plan dumb to close it down

(Cessnock , 2017-01-25)

#524

We need more fire personal not less

(Cessnock , 2017-01-26)

#526

These facilities are vitally important for the community.

(Mayfield, 2017-01-27)

#528

My father in laws father helped open this fire house

(Lovedale , 2017-01-28)

#529

Weston fire station definitely needs to stay open and operational due to the necessity of the fire risks every summer in the area. Their all year service would be sorely missed thus putting additional stress on other Fire stations

(Cessnock , 2017-01-30)

#531

Because I'm a former firefighter from this station, and I know the impact it's closure would have on this community.
