Yarrawonga

YARRAWONGA’s prominent Pigdon Motors site may be redeveloped into a relatively major shopping centre with a speculated end value of about $20 million.

The Moira Shire Council is reviewing an application to develop a 3,500 square metre supermarket, which would be leased to Woolworths, and 11 specialty shops, totaling 1170 square metres, on the site at the southern edge of the town centre.

Planning Minister Justin Madden recently approved an amendment to a planning scheme, allowing land to be rezoned to commercial use, in keeping with the Yarrawonga Strategy – 2005.
