1. Sad to see this land listed. I hope the blocks are kept large in keeping with the area. And no 2 storey structures that resemble boxes. Is this a Heritage area?

2. I live next door to this land in my state heritage listed home. I have lived here for 33 years nurturing and restoring my beautiful home. I hope state heritage will be consulted and any building that happens will be carefully considered before being approved. It’s a very serious issue and I hope it won’t destroy the history and identity of beautiful willunga. My home once had the sisters of st Joseph’s living here. There is a strong connection between the house and the church. Dividing the land and building between us will destroy the significant history which will be gone forever.

3. Higher density and all the implications that eventuate, if this proposal goes ahead, will change the face of this heritage listed area forever.

4. I can’t help but think that the Onkaparinga Council have not got a long term plan for this area including Port Willunga. The charm of the area is rural and historical. Cheek by jowl housing is so out of place in this area!!
   It seems money is the main object with complete lack of thought and foresight into the future. Once this land and other areas are built on they are gone forever! Please see the sensitivity of the area.

5. In addition to my previous comment last month. I have concerns about the creek running through the land and the environmental impact if it were to become a drain or built over such as a house off St James Street. The council have at least uncovered and preserved the similar slate lined drain / creek on the corner of St. Andrews and the Aldinga Road in the recent upgrade. We have a slate lined creek running through our property adjoining this land. It currently runs from the land onto the road at st Mary’s st. I hope the council will address this as we need to preserve these parts of willunga and value that they add to its charm and identity.

6. Ive grown up here over 30 years. Raced Billy carts, rode my bikes and walked my dogs through places that are now unremarkable pockets of suburbia. At what point do people realise that changing a town in this way removes all that was unique about it in the first place?
