Preston Market appears dead unless the government can broker a compromise after traders were informed their leases would not be renewed as part of a longstanding fight over the future of the land in Melbourne’s northern suburbs.
“Why hasn’t anyone been able to come to a compromise which puts the traders as the priority? It’s just disheartening.” Proposed planning rules, expected to be enforced in coming months, would require the market to be preserved. But that cannot force the owners to maintain leases to actively operate a market.
“The existing infrastructure is past its useful life and renovating would result in significant disruption to the site and not be safe for customers or traders,” he wrote on LinkedIn.
