It should also be noted the nature of the parking arrangement ie: nose in results in visitors required   A*
walk around the rear of their vehicle to access the entry which again poses a major safety concern
for pedestrians entering the premises.
The applicant states....
“Client car parking is no concern as there is ample of dedicated car parking at the front”
                                                                                                         If
The applicant claims the commercial aspect of this application, namely a Real Estate Agent, will
not add any further visitation, implying that her signage will not result in anyone or vehicles making
enquiries to her Real Estate. This statement is clearly untrue and misleading.


Applicant states....


                                                                                                         \h
“By converting part of the existing business into my Real-estate office there is no additional
foot traffic as these days most people do not visit an office anymore, it just merely provides
me with a beautiful workspace within the gardens.”

The applicants large signage states Homewares, yet the applicants letter states - Gift Shop selling
pots and potted plants. This signage needs to be changed to what the Applicant states is all that it     ■>#

is, namely “Gift Shop”.
                                                                                                         A*
This applicant has and has sho\ n little regard for Council By-Laws and bracenly opened its doors
as a commercial component along with a cafe. Being a Real Estate Agent, the Applicant would
have been well aware of the Planning Approval process required to do so.

I am also concerned that this Applicant forwarded a shocking text message to a local neighbour
                                                                                                         ff
who was recovering from cancer and perhaps in light of this, Council should assess this application
with considerable care and trepidation.                                                                  or
I also understand the Applicant has been operating and continues to operate an Air BnB sub-let,
despite Council advising this was not allowed under Council By-Law and a promise from the
Application they would not continue. Whilst this has no relationship to this MCU, it is relevant
in terms of how this Applicant respects Council, its By-Laws and the applicants character.
