Dunstan, manager, open space, Moreland City Council. 17 March 2008 Select Committee on Public Land Development 1 The CHAIR — I welcome Mr Peter Brown, the chief executive officer of Moreland City Council. Peter, if you could make a presentation and then we will ask a few questions. Again I thank you for your time this morning when you assisted the committee. Mr BROWN — Thank you for the opportunity of actually putting council’s submission to the Select Committee. I just thought we would start with a bit of a PowerPoint presentation which will hopefully clarify some points, and answer some of the questions you have raised earlier. Overheads shown. Mr BROWN — I suppose council’s position very much is its resolution, which is that the land should be gifted to council. In doing this, council is very conscious of it and is not trying to be opportunistic about this. As Cr Sharam actually indicated, council is very supportive of the Melbourne 2030 strategy and making Melbourne a more compact and sustainable city. To that end, council has invested, as Cr Sharam indicated, quite a considerable sum of money in the structure planning exercise. Just for the Coburg area alone, the structure planning exercise has been at $1.3 million and we are undertaking structure plans for both Brunswick and Glenroy as well.
