A developer has announced to the Australian Stock Exchange its intention to build a Data Centre in Miners Rest.

Miners Rest locals learned about this proposal at the same time as the rest of the market — through a stock exchange announcement.

There has been no planning approval, no permits issued, and no meaningful consultation with the community.

That is simply not good enough.

A project of this scale and significance cannot be imposed on a community without proper scrutiny, transparency, and engagement.

Miners Rest families deserve to be consulted before decisions are made that could fundamentally change their local area.

They deserve clear information about the impacts on infrastructure, traffic, water, energy use, amenity, and the future character of their community.

The developer - Resi Ventures - cannot expect to announce a major development to investors and then leave local residents in the dark.

Resi Ventures need to come forward and explain exactly what is being proposed, what consultation has taken place, and what the impacts of this project would be for Miners Rest.

Our community deserves answers, transparency, and respect.

Nothing less.

Sign the petition now to request the Legislative Assembly of Victoria call on the Minister for Planning to not approve a Data Centre in Miners Rest if requested by developer, Resi Ventures.
