How was this allowed to happen? Clover complains about Sydney Park edges being chopped by Westconnex but then happy to see overdevelopment on what could have been an expanded Sydney Park.
At a guess: the approval is for the ‘concept’, not for anything detailed, yet.
As for why council didn’t buy the land when it was on the market, just guessing, but I suspect that they didn’t notice. There’s a lot happening. It wasn’t something that we were chasing them about, and I guess no-one else did either.
