This submission will result in at least another 8 vehicles using already limited road parking & accessing Government Road. Should the vehicles wish to turn right to head towards the shopping centres, they will face heavy traffic on this road, plus school students running/riding/scootering across the roads. Surely it is time to stop the medium density housing scramble for the quick dollar. In addition it feeds more traffic into a quickly rising tide of traffic congestion around Oak Flats. Please stop passing these DA’s without thought to the local traffic flow, culture of the lovely little suburb & the impact upon families living near these sun blocking/light blocking developments.

When is this going to stop. There is plenty of land released for building homes in the Shellharbour City Council area without choking up an already built up area.
Developers and some home owners are the ones that are benefiting without considering the overcrowding that is happening in Oak Flats.
The multi dwelling housing in Oak Flats is beginning to become out of control.
This submission for example of 4 Townhouses on the one block means the average family size of 2.58 people (OECD) would populate by 10.32 on this site let alone 1-2 cars each unit.
Since these DA's have been sanctioned by Council there has been no infrastructure impovements to compensate in this town.
Future outlook, slums, increase in crimes, lower standards of living ???
Too late folks. Look at the units !!!!!! Council approved them last year. The points made by all of you was lodged against the proposal AND INGNORED by the Council Manager of Development. These completed blocks are JUNK (absolute minimum standard - fibro , tin roof and only brick facia , chip board upper floors , garages that are only good for storage ,and have contributed nothing to the area in attracting new families etc. plus the points made by the others, It will continue with 32 Malin Road. 4 units - small little boxes made of ticky tacky. The developer removed a heritage tree - was fined only $10000, But this allowed him to build two additional units and profit by $600,000 on top of what he would make on the other 2 units . Block of land and house $700,000 (real estate records) + 4 units x 60 sqm per unit @ $1500 (google - for wollongong) sqm = $360,000 total $1,060,000 Est average sale price $750,000 . Do your numbers. Obtain independent advice from professionals like Accountants before buying or trying develop .No value for money at all . Rental returns due to interest rates and high vacancies . negative returns so you'll have to put in your own money to pay the mortgage. House and land offer 300sqm of house plus the benefit sunlight trees privacy , single level etc . Do you homework !!!!! council . You should be aware of the high level of opposition in the community, the high level of vacacies and ACT to stop the ROT
