1. the concentrated two story units on one boundary has a profound influence on our privacy as 3 to 4 units will have direct view looking down into our back yard .

2. I prefer this kind of medium density development in town to any urban spread into bush or agricultural land. We can't keep mowing down trees and other vegetation to provide for human residences. Concerns about privacy can be met by ensuring the developers meet (improved) requirements to properly landscape: i.e. ensure developments are landscaped and that trees and shrubs are planted along borders and maintained to maturity. A similar two-storey townhouse development exists between Wynter and Little Wynter streets in Taree (and has been there for years) where fully mature trees provide more than adequate privacy for neighbouring properties. The major issues for me as this kind of medium density becomes more popular are: design, they need to be more energy efficient and social cohesion needs to be promoted with the creation of better community services and neighbouring green spaces.
   

3. The construction of an 11 unit two story dwelling will create substantial social impact
   on the surrouding neigbourhood. Situated on a blind corner on a steeply sloping block the influx of some fifty residents with only minimal off street parking alloting only three visitor car spaces will prove problamatic. As a long term owners and ratepayers we feel
   confident Midcoast Council will oppose the development.

4. I am so very dissapointed that the Council is allowing this type of residence in an area that has people that have lived here for many years and care about each of the neighbours and their privacy.
   The road access etc will be a major concern and the difficulty of the collection bins, I could go on.
