Melton's population boom
EIGHT new homes need to be built in Melton shire each day to keep pace with the municipality’s insatiable growth.
The Government is proposing a total UGB extension of 10,838 ha in Melton shire, of which 7494 ha is classed as developable land.
A new train station is also expected to be built at the shopping centre, like at Watergardens, to provide convenience for travelling to the city.
Comment: UGB can be shifted and train stations can be built!

Yes that whilst this is true for the rest of melbourne, the yarra ranges also has a legislated document called the "Upper Yarra Regional Strategy Plan". The planning minister can change the UGBs at any time yes, as proven by Justin Madden back around 2004 when he opened them up after they had first been implemented. The above document would have to pass through parliament to be changed so whilst it is not impossible it is a lot harder.
