Former Newport Timber Yard (6 Paine St) Development
Massive 43 unit development, 3 and 4 stories high.
TIME TO OBJECT
Having previously been rejected by both Council and VCAT, the developer has made another application to council to develop this site.
Despite some minor changes the design remains essentially the same, but has now increased in the number of dwellings and height. The terrible impact on neighbourhood character, heritage, traffic, parking, and park amenity of this development remains the same.
This is what the developer wants to stick in the middle of our neighbourhood…
You can view the application and plans here.
If you oppose this development (and what it represents and sets precedents for) please support your neighbourhood by objecting to it as soon as possible, preferably before 10th November.

But there is room for more.
