Comments on: Currawong Beach, Labor and the laps of developers http://www.crikey.com.au/2008/10/28/currawong-beach-labor-and-the-laps-of-developers/ now with extra source Sun, 12 Feb 2012 08:54:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Ailie Bruins http://www.crikey.com.au/2008/10/28/currawong-beach-labor-and-the-laps-of-developers/#comment-3271 Ailie Bruins Thu, 01 Jan 1970 10:00:00 +0000 #comment-3271 This is welcome news that the NSW upper house has voted together to place Currawong Beach on the State and National Heritage registers. Congratulations should go to Sylvia Hale for introducing this motion. We wait for the NSW Government’s next move to find out its true colours. <br /><br />In the meantime, can anyone enlighten me as to what ethical difference there is, between a junior Wollongong Council planner, approving DA’s for a favoured developer; and a group of ALP heavyweights selling recreation land at a give away price to a favoured developer. <br /> This is welcome news that the NSW upper house has voted together to place Currawong Beach on the State and National Heritage registers.

Despite recommendations against the development from all independent parties (council planners), it looks like it might get past due to support from Liberal councillors. I reckon they might be a bit cheaper than State Labour as well This situation is not dissimilar to a Linz development in Bondi where they are attempting to increase the size of the already grossly oversized Swiss Grand.
