Alfred St shop-top housing on track, says owner
Plans to build shop-top housing in Alfred St, Umina, near the corner of West St, are still well on track, according to the man behind the development.
YouSave pharmacist Mr Michael Cunico said his plans were still proceeding through council, despite the council classifying the proposal as an "invalid application", as reported in Peninsula News 518.
He said information requested by the council had been supplied and he expected the council assessment process to continue.

"We are creating very comfortable size units with large balconies in an area where residents have the luxury of walking to restaurants, doctors, grocery stores and just one block walk to beautiful Umina Beach," Mr Cunico said.
"We have underground car park to cater for the development.
"The ground level floor is around 600 square meters
"We are looking for a community-based medical business to fill this area to complement the YouSave Chemist.
"A doctors' surgery would be ideal."
