Planning—Belconnen
(Question No 2698)

Mrs Kikkert asked the Minister for Planning and Land Management, upon notice, on 20 September 2019 (redirected to the Minister for Urban Renewal):

(1) Have any businesses already expressed interest in buying the block 45 section 54, Belconnen site; if so, what are their names.

(2) How many tenders have been submitted for this site.

(3) Is there already a buyer who has committed to buy this site.

(4) Will the successful buyer of this site be legally compelled to ensure that they replace whatever parking is lost in the redevelopment of this site, without increasing whatever parking fees are already in place.

(5) Is there a current development application for this site.

(6) Is there a plan to build a playground in Margaret Timpson Park.

(7) Will the carpark behind the old Belconnen Health Centre be included in the sale of this site; if not (a) will the carpark remain in operation as a carpark and (b) are there any plans to sell the carpark area; if so, when.

Ms Stephen-Smith: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) No businesses have approached the Suburban Land Agency or the Direct Sales team with an expression of interest in purchasing Block 45 Section 54 Belconnen. The site was identified by a Demonstration Housing proponent to deliver a ‘build to rent’ model in the Stage 1 Expression of Interest. The details of the proponent will be announced if they are found successful in the Stage 2 Request for Tender (RFT).

(2) No Tenders have been sought at this stage. A restricted class RFT will be released to the Demonstration Housing proponent shortly.

(3) The Demonstration Housing proponent will purchase the site at market value if found successful in the Stage 2 RFT.
