With a politically divided council and a pro-development council, our environment remains the biggest loser. <br /><br />There are very strong relationships between some Councillors and developers, and between Council planners and developers and or their consultants, and this is why our environment is disappearing at a very rapid rate. <br /><br />No policy or legislation at local, state or even federal level has been used or has been effective in policing and halting what has monumnetal environmental destruction all over Cairns. The FNQ Regional Plan is just a waste of paper. The Council planners head up all the developers of upcoming changes so that DAs are put in ahead of schedule so that all these new polices are not applicable to them.<br /><br />Very disappointing for those interested in saving just some of the Cairns environs!Northern Beaches Warriornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-47022494398182242332009-09-23T09:07:28.714+10:002009-09-23T09:07:28.714+10:00Smithfield Sam, you are right, the draft condition...Smithfield Sam, you are right, the draft conditions if applied to their full extent would render the project financially untenable. But you see we do not have a level playing field.<br /><br />Once the project is approved in principle, it will be almost legally impossible to cancel the approval without the risk of going to Court and Council loosing the appeal.<br />'<br />A 'negotiated decision' would water down all the onerous conditions one by one till it becomes viable at the expense of orderly Town planning.<br /><br />Council might as well approve ex Councillor Freebody's application in the first instance!<br /><br />Finally, if this application is approved with conditions the Barron Delta will be open season for all types of development.<br /><br />That will be sad day indeed!Ross Parisinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-41713736093796760002009-09-23T08:06:20.599+10:002009-09-23T08:06:20.599+10:00Just when it looked like the Council planners were...Just when it looked like the Council planners were doing their job without political interference, a reality check!<br /><br />This is disgraceful behaviour that should be seriously investigated by the State Government. The ink is barely dry on Desley's pride and joy new FNQ Regional Plan and Cairns Regional Council has already thrown it out the window.<br /><br />It is now abundantly clear that Council planning decisions are based on political pressure and corruption.Matt Heirinknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-29603366251928313872009-09-23T04:38:16.543+10:002009-09-23T04:38:16.543+10:00These are conditions Paul Freebody can't meet....These are conditions Paul Freebody can't meet.<br /><br />Don't get your knickers in a twist.<br /><br />The waterpark?
