Hi,
I’m not sure if I’m reading this right, but if BP is BP the fuel station we do not need it. It’s so easy to get to the Caltex, when people are grabbing fuel they are doing it on their travels. Fuel stations are unappealing and the space can be used for so much more that actually adds to our community life. IGA, chemist, post office, boutique/trendy cafes or even a studio for fitness like yoga or Pilates. I can’t believe the size of Cockburn and the lack of yoga/pilate studios in the area. I feel as if IGA, Chemist and Post office would be classified as essential, especially for the older generation that may find it hard to get to Cockburn or Atwell and a nice trendy cafe and fitness studio for our younger generation that love to document their life on social media.
Keep the appeal of Treeby but keeping it boutique, don’t waste the space with a BP, I don’t know how else to say that they are just scabby looking. I hope that whatever is built has a lot of street appeal so people continue to say “Treeby is a really nice area”.
