I think a casino would fit in nicely at WTP, given the amount of gambling on 
twitches the place has seen.

That's what we thought would happen to the plans for a Shipping Terminal in our 
Broadwater on the Gold Coast.
Then the LNP govt in Queensland stepped in and made it an 'Integrated Resort 
Development'  area

Goodbye Eastern Curlews and hello Chinese Casino...

they can't build it because of environmental concerns ...

Any plans to allow this ridiculous pier onto the WTP should be fully and
heavily protested. This site is the most important area for biodiversity in
the whole of central Victoria & in terms of biomass in the world! There is
no way this should happen!-Kevin Bartram

If this does become the official Labor plan, we are left with a Devil's
Alternative: A monstous, lumbering pier and associated infrastructure
cutting right through the the Treatment Plant, or the potential
eco-disaster to Western Port if the Liberal's Hastings Plan is accepted.
Either way the murky world of big business and "progress" will cut a
swathe of destruction through internationally significant environments.
I shudder at the thought of massive oil tankers steaming past the
penguins, seals and shearwaters of Phillip Island, emptying their tanks
onto the pristine, fragile ecosystem of French Island ... yet the Point
Wilson idea is equally hatched from insanity. This whole idea seems
fraught with disaster, hopefully it will be elsewhere, somewhere with a
deepwater port and lesser environmental significance.

for the Point Wilson area, it might upset a few people....
