We’ve received confirmation from FCC that our submission has been received and expect that you will have received yours too.

Whilst we can't be sure, we wouldn’t expect FCC staff to action any submissions over the Christmas break. If you wanted to spend the relatively few minutes required to make a submission, your views may yet still receive attention. No guarantees, but I recall someone saying that submissions may be received after closing dates and before issues are discussed in Council – I could be wrong. Just don’t be inconsiderate and expect Council Officers to revisit their report to Councillors to include your submission close to Councillors’ vote.

If you have new ideas, I’d recommend you send ‘em on – nothing to lose.

We now await FCC's revised allocation of the new Residential Zones.

Those who made submissions should have received notification from FCC that the issue will be discussed by Council at their 20th January, 2014 meeting.

This is Council’s opportunity to reduce, if not eliminate, VCAT objections by eliminating confusion and uncertainty by setting appropriate and clear differences between Zones, which include height, coverage, permeable land and boundary setbacks. This approach can also significantly reduce over-development of our City by too many units per block.

As the Frankston Planning Scheme amendment C95 clearly states: “Frankston City Council, IS the planning authority for this amendment” and Zone allocations are firmly within FCC's control.

This is an opportunity for Frankston Council to regain control of their local planning from VCAT – but only if sound decisions are made NOW.

The issue was discussed by Council at their 20 January 2014 meeting - more info when known.
It is far from finished.

Here’s a pdf version of our Powerpoint presentation to the recent State Govt Planning Panel - (5.6MB)

Posted: **Sat May 31, 2014 6:51 pm**

We are concerned about the processes pertaining to C95.

Variations of the attached letter (see below) have been sent by other Panel submitters to the Frankston CEO, Mayor and all 9 Councillors.
You might like to support our position by sending a similar request. By all means use and personalise the attached if you like.

The C95 Planning Panel Report was received by Council last Wednesday, 28 May, but there appear to be no plans for public release. We understand that Councillors will be briefed on the Report this coming week. Although we don't know what the Report contains, it should be a public document.

At the 26 May Council meeting, it was explained to Councillors (seemingly for the first time) that this amendment does not need to be finalised before 1 July 2014. Although there are unsatisfactory outcomes in that scenario (see attached letter), it is now too late to obtain from Council what we really want for Seaford and Frankston. That must now come later.

With insufficient time allowed for public and Panel participants to gain a full understanding of the report nor to make any issues known, we fear that this important amendment will be rushed through on Council Officers’ recommendations only. As we observed at the Panel Hearing, these recommendations are often at variance with community opinion.

A good outcome re C95 – it has been deferred pending further research and planning.

In fact, a Motion to defer it had been tabled before the meeting (but after release of the public agenda). Since we couldn’t be sure how Councillors would vote, many residents (including me) spoke anyway – I just had to change the content and emphasis.

We will again offer to work with FCC to reach the best possible outcome.

No news yet on the new Residential Zones.
We still have General Residential Zone throughout Frankston (with Overlays in certain areas).

Posted: **Fri May 20, 2016 7:55 pm**

C95 has now lapsed - with no replacement.
We now have the inappropriate General Residential Zone throughout Frankston City.
