Tasmania's planning tribunal says it will now consider an amended cable car proposal for kunanyi/Mt Wellington that reduces the size of the development, ditching a planned restaurant and other buildings.
Tasmania's planning tribunal says it will accept an amended kunanyi/Mount Wellington cableway development proposal that reduces the scope of the project when considering an appeal against council's rejection of the original plan.
However, last month, the company submitted a revised proposal, which its chairman, Chris Oldfield, said would reduce the size of the pinnacle centre at the mountain's summit by about 40 per cent, a decision Mr Oldfield said was based on community feedback. The amendments were resubmitted to the tribunal, which was required to determine whether it would accept the revised proposal.
