Dear Candidate, 

The initial stages (1-3) of the Government/Walker Corporation development at Kew Cottages have been 
extremely controversial in terms of adherence to Governmental Òdue processÓ, environmental impact, loss of 
facilities for disabled Victorians and heritage loss. 

As a consequence, a Public Meeting convened at the Kew Civic Centre on 2nd February 2010, called on all 
candidates, in this year's election, to clearly state their views on the remaining Stages (4-7) of this 
controversial Public Land Development adjoining the Yarra Bend parklands. 

The Brumby Government failed to respond to this Resolution and to the Recommendations of two Public 
Inquiries regarding Kew Cottages. So, one week before the election the views of individual ALP candidates 
regarding the remaining stages of the Kew Cottages development are still unclear. 

Similarly, the Opposition parties have yet to announce a clear alternative Plan for the development of the 
remaining 14 hectares of Kew Cottages Public Land (Stages 4-7). So the views of Opposition candidates 
also remain unclear. 

This continuing lack of information about candidatesÕ views on this important issue so close to polling day is 
not in the public interest. 

To better inform the public, therefore, please complete the attached Online Survey form no later than this 
Tuesday 23 November 2010. 

Your participation will help us provide an adequate and comprehensive response to the 4th February public 
request from your constituents. 

The results of this Survey will be widely distributed to the media and published online via our 
website www.kew.org.au 

The website www.kew.org.au is permanently archived by the National Library of Australia, for current and 
future voters to assess. 

Thank you for participating in this Kew Cottages Coalition State Election Survey. 

Yours sincerely, 

Brian Walsh
