We have heard from local residents of plans at Montrose Access to sell up and move on. We have recently spotted a development application submitted to council for this location, number A003233566. It appears as though this application will be made under the old Walter Taylor South planning scheme to avoid the new requirements for this site under the newer Sherwood-Graceville Neighbourhood plan.
Montrose have released this information sheet on their website:
"Consequently we are applying to Brisbane City Council to sell our Corinda Montrose Access headquarters for residential redevelopment. As part of this plan we will lease a new premises nearby in southwest Brisbane to house our corporate and therapy functions and open a new independent, purpose-build respite centre.
It is still early days in the project plan and a lot of consultation and work has to happen, but selling Corinda will guarantee that Montrose Access is able to maintain the hightest quality of services into the forreseeable future."

The following is a press release from Cr. Nicole Johnston released on 14 October 2011
Brisbane City Council’s controversial Sherwood Bus Depot has been built 2.4 metres further east than approved, requiring a new development approval.
Councillor for Tennyson Ward, Nicole Johnston, said it had been one stuff-up after another on the project, with the first DA non-compliant, ratepayers forking out millions in rent after the site was sold off and subsequent applications made this year to fill and raise the site after January’s floods.
On seeing surveyor's pegs and various engineers messing about at Nosworthy Park, I spoke to the Lord Mayor at the Rocks Riverside Park Festival. His reply is attached. He makes it clear that Council has decided to build a bridge across Oxley Creek at Nosworthy Park and will not consider alternatives. However, there are no funds for building this infrastructure as yet, only $70,000 to complete plans. There is still time to call Council to account and perhaps change to a more suitable plan.
