Rob, I agree that the true cost will be way more. What that will be is the issue.
The $50,000 was just a minimum starting point (without septic, power, fitout, empty yards etc), but with alternative approaches to meeting the objectives for the building itself.
A problem with the industry being so fragmented is that there are no learnings from the successes or failures of others. This is an area where more such information is needed.
Interesting that Tim Bull (Victorian Shadow Racing Minister - Victoria) has committed to reviewing the code. Though this assumes he gets into power.

If you look up new guidelines for greyhound facilties across victoria then Planing requirements for racing dog keeping and training (PFD 206.3KB). And check the minimum requirements for sound proofing and building of kennals. Planing code not the same code I think. Love to see a 100% compliant facility if there is one and no the cost. Pups 6mths of age are classed as racing dogs and must be housed under the same guidlines and requirements eg: out side pup runs with kennals requirements are the same as racing kennals.
yes i see the issues scott. the new permit process is far more onerous than the code
Hayden/Scott, response from the Shadow Racing Minister after me sending Scott's first post.
"Hence we will be reviewing the code Charles"
For nearly 2 years the Shadow Minister has been getting feedback from many in the industry. I can say he is listening, watching and learning.
Labor and GRV's mishandling of Tooradin and government's need for the Greens has brought us to this place.
Hope I can hang in long a nuff to see it close to pulling the pin

A spare $100,000+ for 8 kennals thats my problem. Make the most of the little time left.
Do you have questions how to use the Greyhound-Data website?
