GRAINCORP has taken legal action against the approval of the MAC Services Group’s miners’ accommodation village at Werris Creek.
The company has lodged an application for a hearing with the Land and Environment Court, claiming the approval of the development by the Northern JRPP was not permissible.
“Residential accommodation is inconsistent with the zoning as agricultural land, and we believe the decision to approve on that basis was in error,” GrainCorp corporate affairs manager David Ginns said.
GrainCorp lodged an objection against the development application, claiming the village, which sits just south of its transport and storage facility, was not allowable under Liverpool Plains Shire Council’s local environmental plan.
