Third Avenue mega development
On Monday 25 September 2017 I moved the following motion at Unley Council.
That:
The City of Unley Council writes to the Minister for Planning and expresses its concern about the lack of consultation by DPTI with the local community about the proposed Inner & Middle Metropolitan Corridors (Sites) Ministerial DPA, and particularly for the site comprising 12 to 30 Anzac Highway and 6 to 14 Third Avenue, Everard Park between KFC and Solver Paints on Anzac Highway and extending through to the local minor residential street at the rear in Third Avenue, Forestville.
Why?
Outraged locals in Forestville and Everard Park, especially in Grove Avenue about zero consultation by the Minister for Planning with regard to the mega development on this site. Locals only learnt about the proposal in a recent newspaper article.
I would hope that when the Minister gets a letter of concern from Unley Council, he will undertake further consultation with the Everard Park and Forestville residents.
Will he? I would like to think so. But, the Minister has received numerous feedback on the issue of inadequate consultation and he has not been stirred into action.
It's almost as though there isn't a State election on the horizon.
ps To be fair to the Minister, his department did place a public notice in the newspaper. You know the type of public notice at the back of the newspaper that few people read.
