My own personal concerns EPR GM1 – Pre Construction Condition Survey I agree with this EPR and look forward to working with the LXRA to ensure local residents’ properties are not impacted by the project construction EPR GM2 – Repairs to Property during Construction If our properties are actually damaged, I hope they are repaired to the same condition as before construction EPR SC2 – Respite and Relocation Policy I agree with this EPR and want to ensure both ourselves and our immediate neighbours are accommodated adequately during construction I want to ensure that this relocation policy includes family pets. If we are relocated, we need to ensure our pets are re-housed along with us, or in a dedicated animal shelter. No Sky Rail: Frankston Line Edithvale & Bonbeach EES Submission
