Have your say on new town centre proposal for Middleton Grange

24 August 2018

Middleton Grange residents will have a chance to have their say on plans for a town centre at a public forum on 17 September.

The land for the planned town centre, adjacent to Middleton Grange Public School, is owned by private developer Manta Pty Ltd. Council has received a proposal from the developer which includes increasing the number of residential apartments from 176 to 912 and construction of a large shopping centre.

“Council is aware of the strong community desire for a new town centre and we want to make sure that it suits the needs of all residents,” said Liverpool City Council CEO Kiersten Fishburn.

“We look forward to hearing residents’ feedback when they have had the opportunity to review the proposal.

“We know that the key to successful development is community consultation. That’s why we are hosting a community forum at Thomas Hassall Anglican College in Middleton Grange from 6.30pm-8.30pm on Monday 17 September.”

Ms Fishburn said Council has identified more than $60m worth of works to support the growth of the area.

“New sports and recreational facilities are being planned for Cirillo Reserve, including two multi-purpose sports fields, with construction expected to begin in December 2018.”

To cope with the expected increase in traffic volume, access roads to Middleton Grange will be improved.  Works include the widening of Fifteenth Avenue, the extension of Middleton Drive under the M7 Motorway to Aviation Road, and the upgrade of Flynn Avenue from Cowpasture Road to Ulm Road.

The proposal is part of the Draft Liverpool Local Environmental Plan 2008 (Amendment 63), which will be on public exhibition from 29 August to 26 October 2018.

“I encourage residents to have their say by visiting Liverpool Listens (listens.liverpool.nsw.gov.au) or coming to the Community Forum at Thomas Hassall Anglican College on 17 September.”
