6 East View Avenue Leura NSW 2780

I suppose this is a sensible interim application. However, I trust that noise management will be carried out by the new owners.

Adequate parking must be provided within the property boundary. There is limited street parking, plus the street is narrow, and with no kerbs or gutters, excessive vehicle movement can damage the grass growing on the nature strips.

The use proposed does not respond properly to the amenity of the surrounds.

The intensity of the use proposed fails to respond to the character, amenity and environmental biodiversity of the surrounds.

The scale and intensity of the proposed use would represent an overdevelopment of the site.

The scale and intensity of the purposed use would represent an inappropriate planning outcome.

The existing structures are not suitable for conversion to the proposed use in a way that responds suitably to internal and surrounding amenity.

Insufficient information is provided regarding:

Statements of environmental effects;
Rooms overlooking surrounding dwellings rooms;
Parking and traffic management plan;
Internal alterations,;
Visual impact to heritage and neighbouring amenity and character from external alterations upon the property;
Water sensitive urban design of vehicle parking areas;
Impacts of lighting, noise, odour, traffic upon amenity of neighbouring properties;
Potential for expansion or extension of the existing structures in the future;
Protection of vegetation and indigenous canopy trees of the local ecological vegetation class;
Site emergency management plan.

It is submitted that the anticipated amenity, character and environmental issues cannot be acceptably managed by imposition of conditions and that the only suitable outcome is a determination of Refusal.
