Mr Kelly announced the preferred joint-ven- ture partners to develop the $30-million-plus 185-berth marina facility on the Crown land site next to the Tweed River, saying he ‘can assure the community that public consultation will occur as part of the development assessment process’. But Greens councillor Katie Milne, who along with other councillors met with the minister on the day of the announcement, said she would push councillors to ensure community consul- tation on the issue with a motion at the Tweed Shire Council meeting next Tuesday (July 21). The move follows in the wake of a complaint by the Point Danger Volunteer Marine Rescue (VMR) squad that it has been kept in the dark over the marina’s inclusion of the squad’s long- sought-after base.
