Submission Letter · MCU18/0015

Reasons for Refusal:

Our client has significant concerns regarding the proposed development, all of which are valid.
These concerns include from:

The proposed development being in conflict with Planning Scheme Zoning and the
Planning Scheme in its entirely;

The proposed development poses a significant detrimental impact on the existing
amenity of neighbouring properties and if approved diminishes their values;

The significant harmful impact on established vegetation on site;

The significant harmful impact on native fauna with particular reference to the Grey-
headed Flying Fox, as outlined within ecology assessment and Native Wallaby and
Koala as seen regularly by local residents;

The steep grade of the site being unsuitable for the proposed development, without
extensive earthworks and subsequent negative environmental impacts;
Overdevelopment of the site compared to its existing zoning intent; and

Increased traffic movements and their negative impacts from additional vehicle trips
generated by the proposal and lack of in-depth assessment.

Not withstanding the multiple concerns regarding the proposal outlined above, this submission
will focus fundamentally on:

The proposed development being in conflict with Planning Scheme Zoning and
Planning Scheme entirely;

The proposed development posing a significant detrimental impact on the
existing amenity of neighbouring properties;
