Just to echo this- for one thing I wouldn't listen to what the builder says about them closing the landfill. They have been "going to close the landfill in the next 9-15 months" for at least 5 years now. Plus it isn't the landfill that causes most of the smell, it's the wastewater area shown
here as "waste area" that would concern me.
Plus, that wastewater area is over the old dump. What happens when they do close the current dump? Does it become the new wastewater area?
The south part of New Brighton likely isn't bad. But there are parts of the north part that are just a few 100 metres away from the dump.
