Not Everyone Was Happy on Monday
The opening of Big W in Hervey Bay on Monday was certainly a big event and drew lots of happy shoppers to snap up the bargains but not everyone was happy.
It seems that many of those happy shoppers took up car parking spaces that belong to the RSL and the RSL suffered quite a drop in patronage.
I wonder how many times that’s going to happen throughout the year and I wonder if the number of car parking spaces that the developers were required to provide was reduced by Council. It’s not the first time that the number of parking spots required in that general area has been reduced to keep a developer happy.
