6 Gore Street, Arncliffe NSW 2205

Dear Bayside Council (Rockdale),

I did not receive a notification from the council about this development, but was informed by another resident of the area.

I am concerned about this proposed development being considered for approval at 6 Gore St which is within 150m from my property.

My objections are that:
- The neighbourhood is a quiet family area with long term residents. Properties in this area are highly sort after by other families.
- The architectural designs do not demonstrate a building that is in keeping with other properties of the area.
- The materials highlighted in the design documents do not meet the quality of other properties in the area.
- The proposed boarding house would mean up to 19 residents would potentially be able to live on the property. This is a relatively small block and although some underground parking has been planned it is likely that on-street parking would be required.
- The plans show very limited access to private space for the residents of this property. This may mean that residents are forced to socialise/smoke etc outside causing noise.
- Large multi-apartment complexes within a few hundred metres already offer affordable rentals and there are high vacancy rates for these developments. Therefore this build is not necessary to address affordable housing.

Thank you for taking my concerns under consideration

I am opposed to the proposed development being considered at 6 Gore St, Arncliffe.

My objections are:
- The surrounding structures in the street and area are low density and are designed for families. The proposed development is not in keeping with other properties in the immediate vicinity.
- the proposed number of tenants shall increase the number of bins in this part of the street to an unworkable number.
- up to 19 residents could potentially live on the property putting an excessive number of vehicles on the street.

On the grounds stated above I request that you reject the proposed development.
