| | Council on Monday called for its staff to investigate and report back on who the new roundabout would benefit ? including neighbouring businesses and residents ? and look to "apportion" the projected $500,000 cost accordingly.Aldi is already facing a separate $345,000 bill under council's standard infrastructure charges plan.Councillor Peter McGregor sparked the review, claiming the council was "double dipping" by requesting additional funds for a Weyba Road/Swan Street roundabout, which the council had already planned to build in its Weyba Road Precinct Plan.He said expecting Aldi to foot the entire bill was opportunistic."Planning consultant Shaun Walsh came up with a plan for Weyba Road with roundabouts and bus shelters ? exactly what has now been conditioned for Aldi to provide," Mr McGregor said."If the Aldi development wasn't approved council would eventually have to build it anyway."We have to be fair and reasonable here."Aldi's Queensland managing director Viktor Jakupec said Aldi was of the opinion the Weyba Road store could function with a left in, left out access, but was happy to contribute part of the cost for the roundabout.He said it was unfair for Aldi to pay more than $500,000 in total infrastructure charges, particularly as the roundabout would be of more use in managing heavy traffic accessing the neighbouring football club on farmer's market days than Aldi's "low traffic volume".Aldi's Brendan Geary said the roundabout construction, together with the $345,000 in infrastructure charges and other costs, would end up costing Aldi $1 million.He said that was roughly a tenth of the charges paid by Stockwell for its 30,000sq m Noosa Civic development, which was more than 10 times larger than the proposed 1350sq m Aldi supermarket.Councillors had asked staff to report back at last night's meeting with a breakdown of who the roundabout would benefit, after initial calls to simply charge Aldi 50% of the cost.Councillor Vivien Griffin said if the council was left to fund $250,000 of the cost, rate payers may face a 1% rate rise.Councillor Russell Green said he could not support any cost to ratepayers without strong evidence from staff the community would benefit from the roundabout.

Incredulously, a beautiful lake surrounded by old hardwoods, teaming with wildlife, and home to such residents as the bald eagle, didn't even exist more than a dozen years ago. "The Dragon," as it is known by locals, may seem at first blush to be an uninviting watershed. Gwynn Island is just such a place.?3 of Consumer Goods Are Counterfeit
