Question asked
  1. In relation to the Major Plan Amendment that has been released to add car parking as a permissible use for part Block 12 Section 43 Lyneham, where the car park was constructed by Brindabella Christian College without an approved Development Application, will the Territory be retaining ownership of the land under this proposal.
  2. Will the Territory be taking ownership of the car park constructed on the land referred to in part (1); if so, has the Territory made any payment to the owners of Brindabella Christian College for this transfer of ownership.
  3. Will the Territory be responsible for the maintenance of the carpark referred to in part (1) in the future.
  4. Has the car park referred to in part (1) been constructed to the applicable standards that would be expected of like structures built by the Territory.
  5. Does the entrance of the carpark referred to in part (1) meet standards with regard to active travel, noting that the entrance crosses a busy footpath that is an access point for two schools.
  6. Why has the Government decided to undertake this Major Plan Amendment at this time, noting this carpark is currently the subject of litigation, and does it pre-empt the outcome of that litigation.
