17 Toronto Avenue Cromer NSW 2099

Dear Sir
My apologies for not responding earlier with regards to this development proposal.
The size of this development is gross over development for the area . 22 studio apartments on a 1012 size block in a low residential zone is preposterous.
If you consider the minimum block size is 600 in Cromer - other home owners on a 1012 size block wouldn’t even be able to split their block in half to place another dwelling. Perhaps this IS something Council might consider - reducing the block size to 500. This would then enable these larger 1012 blocks to be more sympathetically developed in lines with the local aesthetic. A 2 storey apartment block is well out of character.
The street is a main thoroughfare however the street is not quite wide enough for parked cars. It takes heavy peakhour traffic with buses and commuters. It is also directly opposite a childcare centre. The congestion it would create in this busy street would make it very dangerous.
Even if you reduced the application to 10 it would be too big. It’s the wrong place for such a development.
Please consider my comments.

I have not problem with this application.
Boarding houses are an essential requirement in our community to help those in need.
People in need are not bad people and should not be treated like outcasts.
Its interesting to note a large proportion of people against it are migrant families who have been welcomed into Australia and now they don't want to share!
