Looking for a tweet about what the work on the playground at the Platypus shops was, I came across this odd tweet from the ACT Economic Development Directorate.

Block 18 Section 44 Ngunnawal consultation open #Canberra #haveyoursay http://bit.ly/SqJqoI
The link shows that it is a consultation for the parkland next to the carpark at the Ngunnawal shops. What intrigues is the manner in which a previous consultation on that very same space received and noted community feedback that the land remain open space, however a merry dance then ensued where the land was OFFERED to TAMS, who said they didn’t want it. Less than a month passes between the land being removed from the Land Release Program and TAMS declining to take it.
Now the Economic Development dept is holding consultations on what to do with the land. Kind of points to the outcome being sought.
Is this how it works now? We just consult again and again until we get the answer we want?
