Planning updates

New proposal for Wapping Wharf – 12 storey building at location of existing cargo units

We think the scale proposed is over-bearing and not in keeping with the existing development and harbourside.

We will check if the public consultation has started, and investigate making a representation to the developer.

Community Benches stolen.

We were very disappointed that the benches on Redcliffe Point were stolen on morning of 8 June. We reported but no action has been taken.

Visitors are sitting on the planter and since the benches were expensive and there has been anti-social behaviour we have decided not to replace and spend funds on a new planter.
