"It's really our only option. Any club that is here when the housing development comes will be able
to attract lots of young kids to play but that will only be good if we can relocate our rooms," Mr Lee
said.

At a meeting with the Member for Gellibrand, Mr Ralph Willis, a staff member suggested the club
could have traffic lights installed so players and spectators could cross the road.

"That's just not possible. That's ridiculous. You couldn't have players running out from the rooms
and waiting for traffic lights," Mr Lee said.

According to the project manager for the development, Mr Rod Fehring the ADI will use the road six
days a week, but he said work could be staged around the club's games and training sessions.

"As a result of the development something will have to be done. We should be able to work
amicably with the club. It's still early days yet, we're talking fine detail at the moment," Mr Fehring
said.”
