On Monday 17 January 2011 a reply to the below enquiry was received. It stated that BCC Legacy Way will undertake an investigation of alternative sites for the location of the construction workers’ car park – however it will also be including the ANZAC Park site in these ‘alternative’ sites and will be undertaking a detailed study of ANZAC Park in 2011 - as well as undertaking detailed studies of the alternative sites.
Sounds like BCC Legacy Way do not rely understand what ‘alternative’ means or what the Coordinator-General has instructed them to do in REFUSING their application in December 2011 to locate the construction workforce car park within ANZAC Park.
The Coordinator-General has instructed BCC to 'fully explore other options' which does not mean including the ANZAC Park site - at this stage. Alternatives to ANZAC Park are to be fully explored before reconsidering the ANZAC Park proposal, and if the ANZAC Park proposal is reconsidered it is only to be reconsidered as being used in conjunction with other parking solutions not provided in the Reference Design. As well, Legacy Way is to provide, in any further application in relation to its parking plan, information on how it has fully explored these other options.
Read page 51 of the CG Report – Note that the Anzac Park proposal may be reconsidered in the subsequent assessment as a part of the project’s parking proposal, however the proponent is advised to consider this option only after other options have been fully explored. Additionally, it is recommended that it be considered as being used in conjunction with other parking solutions not provided in the RD.
This information should be provided as part of any application under section 35C of the SDPWO Act. It would be assessed by the Coordinator-General as part of a separate change process under Part 4, Division 3A of the SDPWO Act. Consultation will be undertaken at that time to ascertain community views. (more on page 57)
The Legacy Way Project Team has advised it will provide more information on these studies and the consultation process once it is finalised.
