MINISTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, LAND AND PLANNING

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION NO. 893

Starlight Drive-In Site

Mr Cornwell - asked the Minister for the Environment,

Land and Planning -

Has the Government determined the future use of the Starlight Drive-In at Watson;- if not, why not?

Mr Wood - the answer to the Members question is as

follows:

The Starlight Drive-In at Watson is the subject of a current lease and it is not the Governments entitlement to affect its future other than to deal with any application made by the lessee.

The lessee of the Starlight Drive-In is interested in redeveloping the site and obtained a lease variation to allow for the construction of commercial accommodation several years ago. He was in the process of finalising plans for the construction of commercial accommodation when proposals for a change in land use policy for North Watson was announced. It is now understood that the lessee is awaiting the outcome of the current Draft Variation to the Territory Plan before proceeding further with the currently proposed redevelopment. The Draft Variation, if approved, will allow the lessee a wider choice of uses; including both commercial and residential accommodation.
