Benalla is not Parafield. It is two hours drive from Melbourne. It floods, taxiways are poor and there is no power or water except for the hangars near what passes for a 'tarmac'. The fuel facility is from 'The Beverly Hillbillies'.
Most of the hangars at Benalla are privately owned but the owners lease the land underneath their own building from the Council. The initial proposed rental increase is to $10 per square metre per year for the dirt under your own building, twice that figure for any commercial enterprise. Plus an unspecified annual fee for common areas upkeep determined by Council and 20 million bucks insurance cover...for the dirt under your own building.
