The meeting was held on Friday, 17 November and included participants from the development company, the Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale, the Department for Planning and Infrastructure and the Office of the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure. A number of issues and options were discussed and the participant parties undertook to document the options for presentation to the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure as a priority.
