Our DA & Roads

Not a fun subject, but it involves lots of our money!

The original Development Application for the Co-op was approved with Consent Conditions, which required that upgrades and maintenance of our access roads, including sealing of Nevertire Road, be undertaken and financed by the Co-op.

We tried unsuccessfully in 2016 to convince Council that this was overkill.

Since last year lawyers and other consultants have been helping to prepare our case again to challenge those Conditions, amend them, and avoid unnecessary and expensive road building at our cost.

Progress of these consultations has been regularly reported to members, who have supported them. As subsequent actions with Council will commence shortly, it’s an opportunity for members to bring themselves up to date and ask any questions.

Denise has prepared an excellent summary (in the previous post below), which everybody is encouraged to read closely, as this is the big issue for the Co-op’s future.

You can also come along with your questions to the first part of the Directors meeting next Saturday (it won’t be considered rude if you leave after that).
