MORNINGTON PENINSULA LEADER
MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire councillors have slammed a decision by Planning Minister Matthew Guy to approve two super service stations alongside Peninsula Link.
The councillors were due to discuss the proposal at last night’s council meeting but it was revealed the planning minister approved the plans on February 13.
In 2012 plans for the super servos at Baxter were rejected first by the shire then by VCAT.
It is believed there will be no further input from Mornington Peninsula shire or landowners close to the proposed sites, which fall within designated green wedge zones.
Angry councillors condemned the decision by Minister Guy at last night’s meeting and said it had serious implications for all Victorians.
“This is about people’s rights,†Cr Anne Shaw said.
