FRESH plans for a townhouse development in the centre of Ipswich close to the showgrounds and the University of Southern Queensland campus have been submitted to the council for approval.
Martin and Sheila Liney lodged a development application to Ipswich City Council to build eight two-storey townhouses on land over 1 and 1b Salisbury Road.
The application notes approval for a development with nine three-storey units on the same site had already been given the green light by the council. The proposal is for eight two-storey units.
“The current proposal is intended to replace that approval,” the application stated.

Subscriber only PREPARING for his next major mission, record-breaking athlete Jude Thomas will represent his club and city with additional pride. Having just added an Australian open 3km silver medal and another under-20 national record to his sensational achievements, Thomas plans to continue competing in a specially created racing singlet. The singlet was custom made by Pete Wyman from Bit Hit, to replicate what Ipswich and District Athletic Club (IDAC) competitors wore from the early 1980s into the 1990s. I really like that singlet, Thomas said, displaying his sense of history and tradition. Ipswich athletes Ben Thomas (left) and Jude Thomas (not related) model the traditional club racing singlets created by Pete Wyman from Big Hit.
