My wife & I object to this application for the following reasons
1) They are next door to an Early Learning facility @ 2 Violet Ave
2) They are within 100 mtrs of another Early Learning facility @ 12 Violet Ave
3) They are directly opposite a busy 6 Doctor Medical Centre @ 13 Darley St
4) They are diagonally opposite a large Pre School @ 9 Darley St
5) Infants & Primary School is next door to the Pre School in Darley St
6) Their proposed driveway will remove 1 or 2 of 4 x 2 hour parking spaces their side of Darley St between Violet Lane & Violet Ave
7) Parking is scarce .. 2 x 2 hour each @ 13 & 11 Darley St .. 5 x 2 hour outside Pre School but only 5 minutes for 3 hours school days!
8) There will, by necessity, be a very large numbers of bins for waste collection each week; on evidence of the traffic & pedestrian chaos frequently outside the apartments Cnr Warringah Rd & Darley St each week this will INCREASE the danger @ the intersection, Darley, Bushland & Violet!
9) I understand the Boarding House will have 22 rooms capable of housing 44 tenants
10) I believe 12 Parking Spaces including 2 x Disabled & 1 x Manager leaving 9 for cars & bikes of up to 44 tenants!
11) The occupancy may frequently change & include Back Packers & Shift Workers. We firmly believe there will be an underlying risk to the very young & the elderly attending the centres referred to in 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 above!
12) Due to illness, Wegener's Granulomatosis, my wife's hearing is very sensitive. We believe that probable shift workers & young backpackers will increase noise & traffic.
Sincerely,
Keith & Suzanne Stevens
