Manly 2015 Plan Officially Dead

26/7/2017

Although the development deed for the construction of the Manly Oval Car Park was cancelled promptly by the new administrator of the Northern Beaches Council, the matter of the outcome of the Whistler Street site has hung in the balance for many months while the Council undertook to negotiate with the successful tenderers, Built Athas.
 
It has recently been confirmed that the negotiations have stopped, and the Council has cancelled the development deed for the project, which was inexplicitly linked to the flawed Manly Oval Car Park Plan.
 
While it may be reasonable for Built Athas to claim their expenses in relation to the terminated contract (which was hastily pushed through by the Liberal bloc on the Manly Council prior to amalgamation), the organisation was also claiming for loss of profits, believed to be a figure of around $45m, which was considered unreasonable.
 
Built Athas cancelled the negotiation process, and no further action will be taken by Council at this stage.
 
This effectively terminates the debacle that was known as the Manly2015 Plan and a five year battle by Good For Manly to stop the highly-flawed projects.

In the meantime Save Manly Oval Alliance is preparing a submission to have Ivanhoe Park, including Manly Oval, listed on the State Heritage Register with the view to protect this area from any future development.

At long last we can get the oval and Ivanhoe park heritage listed. Keep up the good work.

Once again, thank you Candy for your hard work over many sleepless nights protecting the residents of Manly from the proven incompetency of the last Liberal Party dominated council. We can only hope and pray that the electors in the forthcoming council elections recognise the dangers of voting into council any politically aligned members of the community, no matter if Liberal/Labor or the Greens whom are only interested in pushing their parties political agenda and ignoring the local communities needs.
