Dear Sir/Madam

RE:     Development Application for a Material Change of Use (MCU12/0184) for an
        Animal Husbandry Type 2 – Poultry Farm situated at 136 Top Forestry Road,
        Ridgewood

I refer to the above application and advise that Council at its Ordinary Meeting held on 25
September 2014 resolved to defer the matter to allow the applicant to address the following
matters:

A.      Identify measures to mitigate dust nuisance for residents living along Top Forestry
        Road and minimise road maintenance requirements such as sealing of Top Forestry
        Road;

B.      Investigate whether an alternative haul route can be used that does not include the
        residential streets of Cooroy (Maple Street and Crystal Street) and is suitable for
        heavy vehicles;

C.      Confirm whether chicken pick-up times can be limited to day time only (6am to 7pm);

D.      Identify how unacceptable odour impacts on future residents of 124, 146, 172 and
        224 Top Forestry Road may be addressed; and

E.      Provide an Infrastructure Agreement that includes all proposed road works and/or
        maintenance measures to be undertaken to Top Forestry Road to address road
        safety, amenity and maintenance issues and where appropriate odour measures for
        124, 146, 172 and 224 Top Forestry Road.

Should you wish to discuss this matter further, please contact Jack Lewis on the above
number.

Yours faithfully,




Kerri Coyle
Manager – Planning & Environment
