        The Application     does not comply        in the areas outlined     above and has completely                failed to address

        Applicant    makes unfounded,      unqualified    and unsupported        opinion      as to the potential       impacts on the
        adjoining School. The assessment is neither comprehensive                nor soundly validated for example:
