The Changing Face of our Village


Car-parks are now being 'targeted' for development around suburban Melbourne, especially in 'Activity Centres' and Public Transport routes.

Pack 'em in on Bay Road !


Yet another Planning Application has been submitted to Bayside Council for ANOTHER THREE TOWER Development on Bay Road!  ...at 212-216 Bay Road Sandringham.

Planning Application for 3 Tower, 5 to 6 storey development 
plus underground carpark at 212-216 Bay Road


Ground Floor Plan of at least a FOUR Level, THREE Tower Development


Does ANYONE perform any PROPER analysis on the 'cumulative' implications resulting from MULTIPLE High-Density developments in a 'neighbourhood area'?
Apart from other issues, the CUMULATIVE pressures on traffic and public transport have been totally ignored!

It seems like it's "High Density Development at ANY cost!" ...and the 'cost' will be felt by the local community, especially in the form of ever-increasing traffic and public transport nightmares!
Developers will have made their millions and moved on... leaving their 'nightmare legacy', which will be IRREVERSIBLE!
