    We just suffered an extension of McDonald's hours only a few months ago. Wasn't that supposed to have a time limit before another extension could be made.
    City of Sydney Council and McDonald's are in each others pockets in that they don't allow a reasonable are of the community know of this extension.
    I only find out due to Planning Alerts. City of Sydney only advise the properties with 50m which means they let an office building behind McDonald's know and one block of apartments alongside know.
    I request this not be approved for the following reasons.
    1. City of Sydney has been thoughtless to the community in not getting feedback to more than those 50m from McDonald's. It is a greater are than those just alongside who suffer these operating hours.
    2. We are still suffering the latest extension - to hit us with another blow in such a short time is unreasonable.
    3. Rubbish in my street has increased.
    4. Noise in my street due to revellers looking for food/drunks who frequent McDonald's for food has increased.
    5. We all need a break from the smell of the fat for more than 4hrs a day.
    6. This is a residential community. Put McDonald's in shopping centres or major highways where nobody is living and suffering the noise.
    7. We all need more than a 4 hr break from the traffic it brings, remembering current traffic noise goes something like this:
    a. McDonald's traffic includes noisy vehicles (hotted up cars)
    b. 5am helicopters flying over.
    c. 6am aeroplane flights start
    d. 11pm aeroplane flights finish
    e. all night - large trucks travelling down Botany Rd braking nosily, waking me up.
    f. all day and night - due to being in the vicinity of emergency services we are interrupted by their sirens constantly.

    Enough!
    It astounds me that council will read this and likely nobody will contact me for community consultation and say wow we are sorry we have bought so much noise to the local community. They will just shrug their shoulders (as they don't care about people actually, they pretend to be but are fake), and say we were looking for replies saying yes please open McDonald's 24hours (which face it this is what you and McDonald's is edging towards) This COMMUNITY FEEDBACK doesn't suit our current agenda so we will just ignore it.

    Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt has launched an investigation into why we suffer such bad sleep. COUNCIL and McDONALDS you can take plenty of the blame.
