Subject: Disturbing Documents
Good morning Mayor and Councillors,
These documents, amongst others, have just come to me.
Attachment 1 - Council timeline given to the "landowners" late 2007
("landowners" = owners of properties within proposed redevelopment area).
According to
this, Council was hoping for the concept plan to be a done deal by mid to
late 2008 with gazettal scheduled for that time period.Attachment 2 - this is Council Post ad 19/12. Compare timeline wording to
attachment 1.Attachments 3 and 4 - Council letter to "landowners" 12/10. Para 2 "As a
result of a number of formal approaches to the City requesting
redevelopment, the council resolved in early 2007 to commence the Dalkeith
redevleopment area as a priority. To achieve this, the DBFG are being
progressed as both a Town Planning Scheme No 2 amendment as well as being
incorporated into Draft TPS No 3. " Signed Graham Foster CEOThe real story continues to unfold. The contents of these documents is very
disturbing.I have asked Council for copies of the petitions and "approaches" made to
them for redevelopment by the "landowners". No answer yet.I have also made an FOI request to Council. No answer yet.
I appreciate how busy you all are (really I do).
Could one of you please help me with my requests?
Regards
