Developer Dean Franklin: "200 workers on site and boxing on."

Mr Franklin says recent publicity has resulted in a large number of new enquiries

An upbeat Dean Franklin spoke to Crux today at the Jacks Point sales office where multiple construction projects are being managed from.

In spite of a number of his companies being put into liquidation recently, Mr Franklin told Crux that he had “200 workers on site today and we’re boxing on.”

Mr Franklin would not comment on recent media reports that he had settled out of his own funds with most of the local creditors named in a recent liquidators report.

He did say though that recent publicity centered on the liquidated companies had produced a large volume of new enquiries.
