SCRC & Applicant ELO 22Oct2013 (PAE00297940)

22 October 2013




We ask that Council and the applicant confirm that they agree to our clients submissions being dealt
with as properly made submissions. If we receive written confirmation to that effect we will take no
further immediate action.

We would then anticipate each of our clients receiving a copy of Council’s decision notice in the ordinary
course of the IDAS process as if they were properly made submitters.

In the event that our clients sought to appeal any decision or elect to become a party to any decision we
would then at an early directions hearing of the Court, seek to have the Court confirm their status as
properly made submitters.

The benefit of this approach is that the assessment process is not now held up as a consequence of
going back to public consultation and the need for our clients to protect their position by filing an
Originating Application seeking that outcome is avoided.

In the event that this course of action is not adopted, we will be taking our clients instructions in relation
to filing an Originating Application in relation to the defects in the public notification process.

We have provided this letter to each Council and the applicant at this time to avoid any party incurring
unnecessary costs.

We look forward to receipt of your response is a matter of priority.

Yours faithfully
