Now, instead, the Wollongong Council have $$$$ in their eyes by doing what almost every council does, and thats sell out to rampant over development (you know, $ per square meter in rates; The trickle down economic b.s).

So there is a hope that the "increased population" will travel from the airport on these services; However, depends on how many corrupt out of town developers want to come up and loot the Illawarra? Maybe after that runs slow, there may be a change of heart?
