By Georgia TaceyA medical centre will be expanded on a residential Sunbury street, despite objections from residents. A planning application was brought to Hume council’s December meeting for the use and development of land for a medical centre, including an extension to the existing medical centre in Sunbury. The extension refers to the existing medical centre at 12 Powlett Street, Sunbury, and the land at 14 Powlett Street will be the site of the development. Among those against the application, Sunbury resident Melanie Benham had her public comment heard during the council meeting and said the street was not equipped for the amount of traffic. “The street is narrower than most and does not have a formalised road verge on the side nearest to the creek,” she said.
