FITZROY CROSSING LAND RELEASE
I refer to the recent land release in Fitzroy Crossing. (1) What was the development cost per block of bringing this land to market? (2) To what extent were contractors from the Kimberley used in developing the blocks; and, if contractors from the Kimberley were not used, why not? (3) How was the selling price of the blocks determined? (4) What was the value of the blocks as determined by the Valuer General? Hon ADELE FARINA

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1) The contract for the development of this project cost $150 000 a lot. (2) As all the subcontractors used on this project are based in the Kimberley, it is estimated that contractors in the region have undertaken at least 80 per cent of the works. (3) The selling price was determined based on professional advice from two valuers, as well as LandCorp’s real estate agent. (4) The total cost of the lots as determined by Landgate in March 2007 was $1.361 million.
