1. Have real concerns around the introduction of extra traffic to an already busy narrow street especially with one entrance being right on the apex of a tight blind bend. Leonard Street regularly has a number of hospital staff cars parked which causes further congestion, and used as a short cut to Newstead and Kings Meadows by many. The introduction of 6 units with the possibility of 15 extra cars close to the very tight bend is a real safety concern. Many drivers speed down the street, cutting the corner, which is a real risk with driveways positioned right on the apex.

2. This corner is quite a busy one and having traffic entering from this area will create more congestion and near misses as the area is a very narrow Street
   the proponents should only have four units thus allowing for less traffic.
   this block is home to many native birds with mature gum trees attracting a lot of species into this area when they are in flower and during other seasons.
   With so little Bushland in the South Launceston area developments should be encouraged to leave existing native bush land and build sensitively allowing for the infill development which is very important but also making allowance for the wildlife that currently lives in these areas.
