These tower buildings will change the landscape and appeal of Long Jetty and will create more traffic problems and set a deplorable precedent for future developments. Traffic congestion is already a major problem which the council needs to address.
Long Jetty is an up-and-coming residential precinct, and people love living here. This project will lower the ambience of the whole area and property prices may drop.
The environmental impact needs to be carefully considered as does the height of the buildings which will create high density in a quiet suburban area.
One essential problem is parking as no parking is included. Where will residents park?
Also, who will live in these blocks with no parking - vagrants? Parking is essential in a suburban area.
Also, it will not be in line with community needs.
Please consider this project carefully as it doesn't meet the current guidelines, does not have enough required green space, and should not be approved in its current state. If they halved the number of units - lowered the buildings to only 3 stories in height, and included parking for residents, this may go some way towards meeting the current guidelines.
This is a massive development (217 units) relative to everything around it. It is essentially high density dwellings in the middle of a low density suburb. Population growth must be matched with improvements to infrastructure. This seems an unnecessary jump in development size.
