The plans also allow for the renovation of the remaining shopping mall area to incorporate four shop units and an upgraded toilet block. The plans also feature a new mall entrance and reconfiguration of car park layout with 417 car parking spaces, a pedestrian covered walk-way and trolley bays in car park.

The plans were lodged on December 21. Submissions can be submitted by February 2, while a decision is due on February 23.
