Rest assured knowing they are doing their best to formulate an adequate objection to this facility. They are 100% against it. And before anyone says anything about why they are only onto it now, it is important to note that in 2006 when they were first informed about this possible development, they were also told that it was unlikely to ever go ahead. I think a lot of organisations in the area thought the same thing. I have been informed that Investa were only made aware of the application back in 2011 when we were all notified, and have had information regarding it available on the George's Fair website since then. They have initiated their formal objection once they received the letter in the mail that we all received the other week. I am sure Investa will do all they can to stop this facility as they have a vested interest in it, as we do. Re: Anyone building at George's Fair, Moorebank? 4857Mar 15, 2013 3:57 pm Hello Bek I do understand and appreciate the fact the Investa is against the recycling plant as they still have a lot of land that needs to be sold. We purchased the land mid 2012 and were not made aware of the development. We are in the process of building and Investa have our postal and email address on file however we never get any updates, etc Re: Anyone building at George's Fair, Moorebank? 4858Mar 15, 2013 4:54 pm Yes I understand that, and I actually totally sympathise with you. I guess I can see two sides of the fence is all. The developer doesn't have any obligation to inform future purchasers of all upcoming developments in the area. That's up to the purchaser and his/her solicitor to look into. It's like them having to tell all purchasers that there is an application for a Dan Murphy's across the street from the Sales Office. Or that more houses will be built on the golf course rendering all the "Fairway view" residents unlikely to actually see the golf course. It sounds a little deceitful, but they're ultimately selling land to people and it's not in their best interests to warn people about upcoming negative developments. As purchasers we have to take it upon ourselves to do our research! It's like the people who have built along Brickmakers drive who are complaining they were deceived about the road, when the road was on the masterplan since day dot.

I do understand what you are saying but at the same time things are told just to sell the land and half story missing Re: Anyone building at George's Fair, Moorebank? 4860Mar 15, 2013 10:13 pm Scared1stTimeBuilder Re the Brickmakers drive, when we enquired about building close to the drive we were informed that it will be open to local traffic only, no trucks. I do understand what you are saying but at the same time things are told just to sell the land and half story missing I agree. When I first enquired about land right there in front of Brickmakers drive, my sister brought up that its great you get a tree line view but the traffic would be atrocious. The sales person disagreed and said that there would hardly be any traffic going through... After much research I decided to build away from that road.... But that's based on speaking to locals about the use of that road and the first thing they advised was that they would use it as a cut thru in a heart beat... But now the trucks....
