Straight answers over the State Government\u2019s high rise building intentions at Box Hill Brickworks have been requested by North-Eastern Metropolitan MLC Richard Welch.
\u201cMy constituency matter is for the Minister for the Suburban Rail Loop,\u201d Mr Welch told the Legislative Council.
\u201cThe newly released Suburban Rail Loop precinct plan for Box Hill has raised alarm bells in my community.
\u201cResidents are deeply concerned that the Box Hill brickworks site, a rare pocket of open space, has been earmarked for high-rise development. \u201cAs with much of the government\u2019s and the SRL\u2019s communication, it is almost impossible to get a direct answer. There is obfuscation.
\u201cWe are nearing the end of the consultation period, but the local community actually do not know what they are being consulted on, because they cannot get a straight answer about this site. \u201cCan the minister confirm whether it is the government\u2019s intention to allow highrise construction on the Box Hill brickworks site or not?\u201d Mr Welch said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
