It's nearly 3 months later and I haven't seen anything presented back to the community. Do they have a deadline for amendments before the process starts again from scratch? I have at the back of my mind that if the Minister has not approved the changes before the end of this year, that the time limit has expired. This might be incorrect, as I have not been directly involved in this process. This requires a follow-up to ensure that Council have done what they agreed at the council meeting.

Unfortunately by the afternoon I was the only objector left, a rather intimidating experience! However Chairman Potts went out of his way to show me cosideration and he asked searching questions of the experts. He has deferred his response which will be posted to registered objectors. I understand that Council withdrew its objection on traffic grounds because it could not find an engineer to support its objection. Very disappointing. We now await Mr Potts decision. 108 POWER ST; ALL ALONE AT VCAT
