Presented below are the comments made by Esakoff and Zyngier on the draft Bentleigh Structure Plan at the last council meeting. Unlike the majority of those who spoke in favour of the draft, at least in these comments the ‘problems’ are clearly identified instead of resorting to generalities and spin.

They are pathetic! Photos taken of sunlight at 10, 11, and 12 o’clock. Brilliant! How about 1pm, 2pm, 3pm when most people would be having lunch or afternoon coffee? Did they take them at this time because they know damn well that everything would be in shadow by then. I call this rigging the so called “evidence” which is becoming normal practice by this planning department. Would be good to know who ordered them to do this – Torres or McKenzie or both?

A good summary from both of them. Pity the other 5 are deaf and blind.
