For the past 10 years Coffs Harbour has been the State's premier coastal growth centre. Now locals are saying they want to put the brakes on.
A resident, Mr Alan Lloyd, said: "Just as Griffith has been corrupted by drugs so Coffs Harbour is being corrupted by development."
The town clerk, Mr Phil Harvey, cited a saying popular in the council: "The difference between a developer and a conservationist is who got there first." Mr Harvey readily admitted there was widespread opposition to development among long-time local residents.
