An amendment to the existing VPA for East Quarter Stage 3 is proposed in relation to the road works and landscaping works listed in the VPA.

At the Council Meeting on 28 June 2021, Council resolved to endorse an amendment to the existing VPA for East Quarter Stage 3 between Council and Hville Pty Ltd (Developer) for public notification.
