In a contentious meeting held by the Limestone Coast Southern Regional Assessment Panel, plans to demolish a heritage-listed wall in Mount Gambier, South Australia, were approved. The decision to proceed with the demolition has drawn significant ire from local residents who had appealed for the preservation of the 140-year-old flour mill's facade. Developers from Mossop Construction argued that maintaining and repairing the wall would impose a financial burden of approximately $2.2 million, a cost they deemed impractical for the development of a new retail and accommodation precinct.
