Great work Roger, keep it up.
 
All I am seeking is any communication to the owner that sets a completed demolition date. If you could forward such I would be indebted.
 
The building demolition workers have increased in numbers and urgency.
 
Once the bricks are removed Tandos must commence building if he is true to his word.

Dear Peter,

In response to your most recent e-mail I wish to advise that the wording of Section 173 agreement required by a condition of the planning permit issued by Council simply requires that all buildings on the site be demolished.  The demolition works are being undertaken by a demolition contractor in accordance with a permit issued under the Building […]

Yet again Moreland Council has provided a concession to the “developer”. A Section 173 allows the demolition of the site to be completed by December 31 according to Roger Collins - Director of City Development. His reply to my position is below:
 
Dear Peter,
DEMOLITION OF THE FORMER COBURG HIGH SCHOOL BUILDINGS           
Thankyou for your e-mail received […]

 
Here is a copy of the email forwarded to Phillip Moran of Moreland Community Health:
Dear Mr Moran - I am a resident of Rodda Street Coburg close to the old Coburg High School site.
As you are aware the site is owned by Geroge Tandos of Consolidaterd Property Ventures.

Bridgecorp seems to be very similar to the one time part owner of the old Coburg High School site Westpoint.

Besides the investors who will loose money it seems unbuilt developments in Australia and Fiji will be the legacy of this collapse.

See story here
Mayor O’Brien says he welcomes the development - what the hell does he say about the rubbish dump directly opposite Moreland Council offices??? For 11 years the ALP Mayors and Councillors of Moreland have kowtowed to the owners of this site. Why?
 

Whenever I complain at Moreland Council meetings about this site I am told I am a “nimby”. Who’d want an open gate, glass strewn concrete and used syringes accessible to their playing children??
      
 
 

On John Faine’s morning talkback show this morning I had the chance to question Planning Minister Madden in relation to the debacle of the Coburg High School site. He promised to take my details he would follow up on what is happening as local councillors dont communicate with residents.
 
 

The continued disgrace that is the old Coburg High School site in Bell Street directly opposite the Moreland Council offices continues.
Today is the 60th day since VCAT approved the Council decision to grant a demolition order on the heritiage building. Here is alink to that decision by Des Eccles http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/vic/VCAT/2007/404.html
Councillors who have been supporting the […]
