(4) Given that development application approval for this site has expired, has another development application been filed by the current leaseholder; if so, when will a final decision to approve or reject be made; if not, how long can the current leaseholder fail to develop this property without the Government taking action and what action would the Government take in such a case.

Mr Gentleman: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

As advised in the previous QON, where there is a current development approval, a leaseholder is generally considered to have demonstrated their intention to use the site in accordance with the lease purpose. In relation to the area in question, the planning and land authority has approved an application for the construction of a three-storey mixed use development including a supermarket, commercial tenancies and 22 residential units. These are consistent with the lease purposes. This development approval has not expired.

The responsibility for developing and tenanting a commercial site rests with the lessee of the block. The ACT Government has provided all relevant approvals to enable the current lessee to undertake works to provide a development that benefits the McKellar community.
