This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.
The focus of our discussions is based around things that effect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.
Ongoing discussions, FAQs & Resources (still under construction)

The saga continues...
For the benefit of the community the market needs to stay.
Realistically any development on the site will kill the traders whilst construction is underway
While the heritage overlay protects the sheds it doesn't really protect the market operation. It was a clumsy tool to win votes and makes development plans a further nightmare.
The owners of the site want their payday but have ultimately made a poorly planned investment.
Unlikely to happen but the state needs to step in and turn this into a state project in order to get an outcome that satisfies all parties.
