The first Masters Homemaker Improvement Centre in Wyong Shire is on the way at a cost of $26 million.
Last Thursday, the Joint Regional Planning Panel (JRPP) gave unanimous approval to the development at its meeting at Wyong.
Masters plans to spend more than $26 million on the development at the corner of Wyong Rd and Tonkiss St at Tuggerah which includes the Masters outlet and public art.
More than 130 jobs are expected to be created once the Masters store is open for business.
Wyong Councillor Lloyd Taylor, who is the council’s delegate on the JRPP, was pleased to support the proposal.
“This $26 million development will create jobs for the area which are much needed in our high unemployment region,’’ Cr Taylor said.
“We have a huge housing construction boom in the area and Masters are a welcomed addition to Wyong.’’
A Masters spokeswoman said the company looked forward to the development.
“Masters is pleased to see progress on this development application,’’ she said.
