Mildura councillors will tonight consider a proposed development at the Mildura Marina.
Locals are behind the multi-million dollar proposal which includes a hotel, new homes and a convention centre on Dockside Drive.
However a report to councillors is recommending the application NOT be approved, saying it wouldn’t provide attractive or identifiable access to the city centre, and would detract from the character of the area.
The report by the council’s planning department says the proposal for Dockside Drive does NOT meet the original plans submitted in 2009.
The report also concludes that the proposal is inconsistent with numerous clauses of council’s Planning Policy Framework.
