I chased this up and got the following reply:
Normal VCAT appeal time is 6 months and then up to 6 weeks for a decision. That’s put us into April/May. This one I would hope would go to the major cases list which can get in earlier than above (within about 8 weeks approx.). No smooth path for us. From what I can see even the Council vote was close as some still tried to tie the decision with a review of the pokies etc. When you think the overall project is so good for more than just StKFC (it’s a whole of southern/s-e metro facility approach) and will fix up the run down dump it is now. Hopefully sense will prevail and we’ll see some action early into next year. <courtesy of another Saints tragic>
