Is it still up - 'cos a mate told me that the access was closed over the weekend as well. Probably the reason why the bank evaluations are not happening The fencing was up till last Sunday (9th Oct) evening as I saw. I am not sure whether its been removed now or not. Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 424Oct 11, 2016 4:30 pm It's just reached 3 weeks since lodgement.. anyone have insider info on the progress? So have they properly fenced it off now, as in no half closed gates from either side of Dalmatia Ave Re: Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 425Oct 11, 2016 4:38 pm Hey Guys offshoot topic. Do you guys know which public (Primary and High) schools catchement area do we belong to?. Just researching on this angle at the moment. If I see on average it seems there arnt many good schools around at the moment, which is concerning for a big growth area like ours! Apparently someone on this forum mentioned we come under Dalmeny & Prestons catchment area. How are schools in that area (performance wise)?. Other option is of course St Francis, but don't know if the enrol non Catholic students. It will in Oran park initially anyways. What your thoughts regarding this?.

Hi @west_rocks I will answer in 2 parts based on your question: Currently kids are going to All Saints Catholic in Liverpool and will continue till next year (2017 December) which is when we are expecting to move to our own house. After moving and hopefully St Francis School be fully functional and based on the feedback of the school we will change the school else will continue with the same school as we are very happy with the current school. There is bus service from Edmondson Park to most of Schools in/around Liverpool/Casula. Options for you apart from the ones you have mentioned: There's William Carey school across Camden Valley Rd which I have heard is very good and you can also check its rating online. Pretty expensive though. Yes, we are non-catholic and we got our kids enrolled in Catholic School so shouldn't be a problem. Re: Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 430Oct 13, 2016 10:28 am This was sent to the solicitors of magee holdings who inturn forwarded it to my solicitor. The letter I received from my solicitor says the plan of subdivision has been extended till 9th December. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ If this is only subdividing, I don't think registration would now happen in December. Re: Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 431Oct 13, 2016 10:40 am When looking at the e planning website the stage 1 ( stage 16 i presume) application has a date under 'assess application new lots created' whilst stages 2-5 don't. Does this mean that application is tracking ahead of the others? Re: Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 432Oct 13, 2016 10:56 am I don't even believe registration will happen until next year at this point. Did you or your solicitor make any specific requests to get all communication forwarded to yourself? Reason I ask is because I've never received anything from the developer through my solicitor, apart from the land contract >.> Re: Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 433Oct 13, 2016 12:52 pm Hey Guys, Run into another trouble. My builder has come back with the plans after the survey and contours. And its not good. The level of Cut at the rear at one end is 700mm and other at 600mm. Which means I will have to build a retaining wall in the backyard and the level of my house and backyard will not be the same. Got two options I think. 1. Build a retaining wall within the confines of my lot with House and Backyard at slightly different levels 2. Cut all the backyard (which am sure will be expensive) and build a retaining wall (even higher one) at the boundary fence level (Shared with Neighbour and which may not be possible due to regulations etc). What I know is that I am screwed either ways. Do you guys know of any Landscaper/Retaining Wall builder so that I can get approximate quotes/costs involved. Need it ASAP. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Guys. Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 434Oct 13, 2016 3:34 pm jonny90 I don't even believe registration will happen until next year at this point.

I just received a letter from my solicitor and with it two more letters attached- one from developers to land Owner's solicitor and second from the owners solicitor to my solicitor Re: Village Square Edmondson Park Stage 16 435Oct 14, 2016 10:38 am All my negativity from yesterday and this is what I get today form our builder... Hi, I have just received advices from the Developer that the plans are out of Council and now are with LPI (11th October) , they expect rego in 3-4 weeks. No idea about the driveway question, but your price for a house that size including landscaping seems very good! 1 6386 The fastest thing a builder will do is bank your cheque, those systems work perfectly with lightning speed, everything else is slow burn. Just the way it is. 1 9090 |
