Allura Estate Local Residents request to be thoroughly consulted on the application. The Allura Estate Town Centre was intended to have a much larger shopping centre that is presently anticipated. 100s of Allura Estate Residents are strongly opposed to the reduction of car parking in the area and the reduction of commercial shop space in favour of high density housing or excessive residential development. If the developer consults with local residents and ensuresthat residents concerns are heard, its likely to minimise objections to this application.

All of Allura Estate Local Residents were promised a local shopping center, at least this is what we were told while buying land/properties in Allura by Stockland, and now number of Townhouses and dwellings have been proposed to built instead of a proposed shopping center, this is a scathing behavior by Stockland/Woolworths/Current Developer. The traffic around this property will no doubt quadruple the local traffic, and reduction in car park will definitely make things worse.

Proposed 4 story apartments may cause privacy issues to residents of Bradshaw Street and ventilation could also be concern. Hope these issues are considered / consulted before approving the plan.

The number of townhouses and smaller dwellings are a concern. We don't have any cafes or restaurants let alone a Woolworths that was promised. Years later we're still waiting and we've now been informed of multiple housing complex. Very disappointed.

We strongly object to the proposed high density apartment blocks, especially the proposed 4 storey apartment buildings.

Reducing the size of the much-needed shopping centre to accommodate high density apartments is of no benefit to the community.

The current infrastructure (Mainview Boulevard and surrounding streets) is not designed to support the traffic that will come with this high-density living space. There are already 2 schools, a childcare centre and a child and maternal health centre in this small area.

The area is busy during peak hours, with local and outside traffic trying to access freeways and the above facilities. The proposed apartments will no doubt lead to further traffic congestion and noise levels.

Additionally, the four-storey building will disrupt the skyline, be unsightly and result in the shadowing of the existing homes / area, result in privacy concerns and ruin the natural appeal of the area.

We strongly object to this proposed plan with high density apartments and townhouses.When we had purchased land in Allura,the area was marked entirely for Allura town centre.This plan is a cruel joke on people like us who paid premium to purchase land to have an access to local town centre and cafes.
It is surprising that the plan has 4-storey apartment.Seriously.I moved to this suburb thinking it to be quieter with clear skyline and sunshine.

The allocated car park is also shrinking.This is not acceptable to hundreds of the residents in Allura and this proposed plan should be revisited with local community.
We need more space for retail and parking to avoid making Allura a ghetto.

I am voicing my concern for the proposed apartments and townthouses in the Allura shopping centre project. This is completely different from what we were promised by the developer when we were buying into the estate. The purposed project is not sustainable for an area of that size and most residents in the agree would agree with me. The Council should reconsider this plan and work towards a plan that is more suitable for the area.

Allura is a beautiful Estate and love the area very much,
I will be very disappointed if the 4 story townhouses were to be built there.
We were told we would have a supermarket which we need more than the apartments .

I purchased my home in Allura Estate in 2106 with the Stocklands promise of a Woolworths shopping centre/retail complex with proper parking. This was one of the main reason I (and all who live here) chose to buy and live in Allura estate. Also the Centre would top off and augment the wonderful School and adjoining sporting grounds. The fact that Woolworths pulled out of this with no discernible reason was a huge blow to the residents. We (The citizens of Allura) met with Woolworths and the now owner/developer of the proposed retail centre, and all I can see is a greedy developer wanting to put as many residential townhouses as possible on the lot by vastly reducing the retail and Supermarket (Developer has agreement to put an IGA in there which no-body wants) to do so. This is a great disservice to the community and not a care give by both Woolworths and or Stockland who made these false promises in the first place. The additional cars and traffic this will bring (and right next to the school) will be disastrous for the community. I would rather boycott this development and buy my groceries elsewhere, Coles and or Aldi's please help!

NO to more DENSER housing!!!
It has more negative impact to the community than positives. More: traffic, double parking, rubbish, crowdedness.
Planning needs to be more applicable to the existing infrastructure. There are 2 schools, a Kinder, a Maternal Child Health centre, a Community centre, a Childcare centre, Sporting complex and a Family oriented neighbourhood. Planning needs to align to the needs of our community. We need a proper shopping centre with a pharmacy, laundromats, fishmonger, fresh grocers, open spaces, cafes, playcentres - perhaps a water based outdoor playground similar to the one in the Riverwalk estate in Werribee, an Indoor multipurpose Sporting complex with a swimming pool, Basketball, Netball, Indoor Soccer, Badminton etc, community based gardens. Especially in these uncertain, random covid times we are living under, we need facilities that are nearby for people to utilise and a space to gather, especially when we have km restrictions. Covid has changed our lifestyles and planning of that space needs to cater to this.

I purchased the land in 2012 at allura. It's expensive at that time compare to Bellvue estate or nearby estate. I buy small block as compare at that time I can buy bigger blocks in nearby Estates.stockland promise for Woolworth shopping centre nearby and tennis court at the time of purchase it's in there purposed Masterplan but after couple of years when they sold 80% of blocks they changed everything.In my opinions I feel deceived by this big name developer and there is no law or any govt organisation or council who can ask these questions on the behalf of the people live in allura to this big developer they supposed to be delivered what ever they promised or they have return some money to us if they not fulfill promise. But now they utilising the same place to make a high density living place and make more money and the councils have look this matter not approved this it's already got two school nearby childcare centre and kindergarten at the peak hour or school hours it's already start getting traffic jam in this area. After long time we got only one benefit here in allura we got bus route 152 just start now.

No to town houses!

Yes to supermarket as promised by developer from start!

I bought in Allura back in 2013 mainly because of the town center (one of main selling campaigns of Stockland) so it's A BIG NO to density housing instead of a proper supermarket. Please don't allow our estate to turn into a ghetto just because the greedy developer wants BIG return for his investment, ie. building apartments/townhouses more than anything will 'fatten' his pocket but IS NOT in the best interest of the community. Parking will definitely become an issue if you approve this development. Where will these 4 story townhouse residents park their cars???? We alsi already have issues of litter everywhere in the estate so this will become worst. The area should remain family and child friendly >>> with existing two primary schools, a community center & a couple of childcare. What the residents need is a decent supermarket as promised by Stockland when they sold the lands here at a premium but never deliver. They only profited. As a reminder too, Truganina is the only suburb WITHOUT a supermarket so it's about time, we have one. Please do everything in your power to STOP this "density" housing.

Please big no to Town houses.

We have paid extra due to super market promise made by developer not for the town houses.

We bought in Allura back in 2013 due to the promise of the town center and a quiet lifestyle where we could raise a young family(one of main selling campaigns of Stockland.) So to density housing instead of a proper supermarket is a big NO from us. Please realise that the roads and infrastructure don't allow for this type of development to be viable. Don't turn our estate into a shemozzle just because the greedy developer wants larger return for his investment, this IS NOT in the best interest of the community. Parking will definitely become an issue if you approve this development. Where will these 4 story townhouse residents park their cars?. The area should remain family and child friendly with existing two primary schools, a community center & a couple of childcare.

We need promised town centre/shopping centre. Not townhouses or apartments.

I completely against the proposed plan and want Stockland/New developer to stick to the original plan which was promised to residents of Allura at the time of property purchased, All of us are in dire need of town centre with local facilities to residents. Adjacent school this year was P-6 and at peak hours residents don't find a car parking space and very crowded which is leading to dangerous traffic situations and next year this school will open for P-9 which means lots more students and lot of traffic. Adding to this dense resident in place of shops and car park will add misery to local resident and put residents of Allura in harms way. We expect to have through consultation with local.
.

I see you have already approved the permit Wyndham council. Thankyou for listening to us when we all said we don't want townhouses or apartments in the area. We need shops and restaurants and are awaiting the arrival of a SUPERMARKET. Will let us know what is happening or do we need to all empire builders and start protest against this.

Need shipping centre and restaurants as per initial master plan. No more apartments please.

How did you appprove this council???
This land was planned for a town center with a proper supermarket not townhouses & 4 storey apartments??? Why give in to greedy developers!

As many have already commented above.
When I bought the land in Allura from Stockland we were promised Woolworth, now I have heard Foodworks is coming which she similar but there was no mention of high rise.

I highly object on High rise apartment construction in the vicinity. There are two schools, a kindergarten and a child care surrounding this complex. It will be very chaotic if high rise is built here but traffic problems.

A BIG NO TO APPARTMENTS AT THIS SITE (50 Mainview Boulevard)

When we bought the land from stocklands back in 2014, they have promised the above area was sold to Woolworth and it will build a shopping center. According to their plan, it half for car parks and half for shopping areas. Unfortunately, Woolworth was designed to pull off the plan.
They sold the above land to iga awhile ago which the old permits still valid. And the land are marked “commercial purposes only”. The new developer should beware of these occurs.
The new development have been waited for a years till the old permit expired and applied a new plan. I have understand the mix of rental, commercial and entertainment are acceptable in above land, but our whole estate residentials are believe the above land are mainly for commercial only.
According to the new development plans, there are above 65% of areas are residential purposes, 25% of areas are 2 storages of car parks and only 10% of areas are commercial and entertainment purposes.
We are objecting this plans base on traffics, crimes and safety, growing pollution, and environmental protection.
The shopping and others retails are the need of the 1.5km surrounding residential.
