Westfield Shopping Centre, Tuggerah

Peter was appointed to a position of Senior Development Planner with Wyong Shire Council in 1993 and undertook the assessment and project management of the construction of the Westfield Shoppingtown at Tuggerah. This involved daily interaction with Westfields to ensure the smooth transition of a greenfields’ site into a major regional shopping.

“Peter Fryar has been known to me since I assumed responsibility for the development management of Westfield Shoppingtown Tuggerah during September 1994. The development of our regional shopping centre required the fast track design, approval and construction of more than 60,000 square metres of retail space developed over a 21 hectare site. During the development period the Development consent was modified several times to reflect our changing design. On each occasion Peter was able to evaluate and form a professional opinion which was always founded on a correct and proper assessment of the arguments. I have enjoyed our professional relationship and hold Peter in the highest regard as a talented Town Planner with high personal standards and the utmost integrity.”
