This development is NOT appropriate for this area of 'old Gisborne' which is established, primarily retired residental demogrpahic, and has virtually no room for growth. Why:
1. Noise from 116 children will adversely affect the quality of life of those living in the existing housing, including at least 5 houses situated 3 metres or less from the childcare play area and carpark.
2. The infrastructure is not adequate for the volume of increased traffic, putting pedestrians (especially school children) at risk when they have to walk either on the road or on the nature strip (there are no footpaths around the planned site).
3. An operation such as this is not in-keeping with the amenity of this area of town.
4. There are three other childcare centres either in progress or approved but not commenced (total of 353 places) in addition to the other 9 current centres, 6 of which have vacancies at present. Not to mention the one in the old Middy's building which was approved but obviously not needed given it is now being marketed as a medical centre!
Where is the needs analysis for this development! It does not belong here.
