1. CONCERNS:
   -Too many dwellings for the size of the land
   -The increase in traffic especially when turning into Dolphin Point Road on a sweeping uphill bend.
   -Loss of more mature trees!!!

2. Is this on the park land?
   It looks like it will span the creek.
   What implications have been considered in regards to the increase in traffic, parking requirements and environmental impact on our waterways?
   How will it impact our coastal feel at Burrill? Too many people packed into a small space.
   Has the Dairy development not been enough?

3. I am opposed to this development on the basis that it the number of dwellings proposed is not consistent with the area or with the available infrastructure. It will also set a benchmark which risks leading to future over-development of the area.

4. I am opposed to this development for numerous reasons;

   The 3 storey height is excessive and is likely to cause loss of light and privacy to the residences surrounding the development.

   The noise coming from the number of people residing in 16 x 3 & 4 bedroom properties will impact severely on the surrounding residences. The constant noise from the air-conditioning units alone will impact on the amenity of the surrounds.

   16 x 3 storey units / townhouses is excessive for a 3750m2 block and will severely detract from the visual amenity of the area. There is very little outdoor space and there is nowhere showing for washing to hang to dry in the fresh air except on balconies which will make the development will look like a slum and detract from the coastal village appeal of Burrill Lake.

   The traffic generated by the number of vehicles owned by residents and their visitors will be excessive and endanger children, the elderly and wildlife in the area.

   The number of vehicles within the development at any one time, a possible 48, is far too many for the small area and will endanger residents and visitors within the development.

   The shadow diagrams show excessive shadowing over the Lot behind Lot 5 DP 1123774, this lot is zoned E2 Environmental Conservation how will this affect the trees?

   The owners of the neighbouring properties do understand that there will be development on this block but feel that the number of units/townhouses and the three storey height is unreasonable and will not be in keeping with the existing residences. This is a quiet family area and the injection of this many residences in this one small area will destroy the whole feel of the suburb.

5. I am opposed to this development. The fragile entrance to the lake will be effected in an extremely negative way if this development is approved. With erosion already extremely evident during large tides and storm surge how will this critical estuarine environment be preserved with large buildings and potentially hundreds of people invading it's shores. It's high time this council started considering the environment before money and kickbacks!

6. No no this development must not go ahead.
   3 stories is just too high and the number of dwellings is excessive.Burrill Lake residents do not want this sort of development especially being so close to the Lake entrance.I am very concerned about the obvious negative environmental impact on the waterway and adjacent bushland. A development such as this will most certainly detract from the natural beauty of the area which must be preserved. There are enough dwellings in the vicinity already.I suggest council consider conserving what is left of any bushland near the entrance of the lake for obvious reasons. This development must be down scaled significantly. If approved in its current form this DA will set a dangerous precedent for future developments in the area.

7. The extra traffic from the huge slum at the old dairy is already creating its own peak hour in Ulladulla with normal daily traffic much like holiday traffic in the past. For goodness sake how much more will be destroyed in the name of progress.? It also will increase the stress load on nearby national parks with more domestic pets etc. please stop allowing the south coast to become the next southern suburb of Sydney.

8. There are so many developments currently undertaken & too much vegetation including mature trees cleared.
   This needs to stop!
   Stop the developments until infrastructure has been upgraded to accommodate the current disaster on our highway.
   The bypass needs to go ahead to relieve the situation created by the mass developments already approved.

9. Can someone explain please exactly where this is going to be. Can’t follow the map.

10. We will have more problems with the lake entrance, with people . And the lake would have more traffic , our serenity will be be lost, also traffic going into and out of Dolphin Point would be worse than it is now. Already since the new bridges and 3 roundabouts In such a short space. Has caused many problems, I.e.near misses and more traffic would add more to this problem

11. I am totally against this development as 3 storeys is not in line with the feel of the area. There is already too many new dwellings that will cause huge traffic changes. This does not support the natural beauty. Look at the destruction of other coastal towns once these types of developments go in. People come to the south coast to get away from the city and this changes the whole view of such a pristine place let alone the pollution and other issues this will cause. It is not suitable for such development.

12. Burrill Lake is a small village and we need to keep it this way. I am against this going ahead. It will affect our local environment and native fauna and flora and animal habitat. The amount of traffic we have now from the development on Dingley's farm is excess and we don't have the infrastructure for more. Keep these developments to the big end of town Ulladulla. We need to keep our lake pristine. Developments like this will effect our lake and Beautiful Burrill. We don't want to be like North NSW and the Gold Coast.

13. I oppose this development with it being three storey high this totally wrong for the surroundings also with all the housing developments in the area we don’t need it the road which it is on is not built to take this type of traffic congestion it bad enough at holiday time let alone a construction of this sort the environmental impact on the area and lake would be catastrophic I am wonder how our council could even consider a construction of this sort I thought it was park land we don’t hv the infrastructure in surrounding area for this schools full medical centre busy hospital not a full functioning hospital no parking as if we need this sort of high rise it wil only be an eyesore on our lake forshore

14. I am entirely opposed to this proposal.
    Squeezing any, let alone 16 dwellings into such a small area seems purely development for the sake of development, and quite frankly, Burrill Lake and Dolphin Point has had more than it's fair share over the last decade. A line needs to be drawn, especially as this proposal for
    3 storeys is utterly unacceptable and will potentially see more of the same kind of development around the area. This must not be allowed to happen.
    I would also be very concerned as to the environmental impact as it sits adjacent to wetlands.

15. I strongly oppose this application.
    When is Council going to stop thinking about their bank balance and think about 1. The Environment first and foremost,
    2. The impact that it has knocking down everything in it's path to develope with absolute no regard to the environment or wildlife. The development in The Dairy is proof of this.
    3. The impact on the serenity is slowly but surely already happening in the so called sea side town we used to love it for.
    4. Why are we building more and more houses, yet there is no new infrastructure no new jobs ( apart from building theses houses and all that comes with it )
    5. This town is going to end up just like Shellharbour ... Greed will always win over wildlife, environment and serenity.
    Sad :(

16. As much as I like progress. This is not acceptable.
    1/ It will not beautify the area, but instead will detract from tranquility and lay back atmosphere of the area.
    2/ it will needlessly intensify the strain on infrastructure especially during peak times.
    3/ Will not benefit the local community in any way. The benefit will only go to the investors who may not even be residents of Australia.
