1. I will like to highlight and object on the construction of this boarding house in Toongabbie.
   • All locals and also council should stand up and review and reject this proposal for Toongabbie.
   • The boarding houses proposed for Cornelia Road are close to the two primary school, and secondary within a range of 500 metres posing a “serious risk to school children arising out of potential occupants and traffic” on Cornelia Road.
   • This is next to busy roundabout and will undoubted cause significant problems with traffic and possible risk/safety concern and with school children as this construction will close to three major school in Toongabbie.
   • This will cause significant traffic issues for people from Seven hills and Toongabbie during peak office hours.
   • The development will attract a “different demographic to this family-friendly area” which is the again in the catchment for 3 schools.
   • There could be potential health risks if a number of people living in these boarding houses are smokers and health issues around families with young kids.
   • The aspect of trust for Cornelia Road will be seriously questioned if the boarding house development proceeds.
   • People staying in short-term motel-style accommodation/boarding will be mainly transient people of varied life experiences, some of a conflicted nature and will impact residential area.
   • The houses on all sides including the adjacent neighbours will have their privacy significantly impacted by the proposed building which should be considered by the council.

2. Don't want a boarding house in this quiet community.
   Due to varied nature of boarding guests it will be safety issues for kids in neighboring area.
   I am afraid approval of one may lead to more proposals of such kind that spoils the character of the community.
   May lead to more traffic congestion to already congested round about.

3. An update on this property has been noted on blacktown council page with amended plans.

4. I would like to pay attention to the point that This area is residential not commercial therefore we are rejecting the proposal of boarding house.
   Below listed are the consequences and problems/issues if proposed boarding house :
   -close to 3 schools
   -will impact neighbors privacy
   -short term staying people with varied experiences will have adverse impact on local community
   -on the round about -traffic congestion

5. I strongly object to the proposed construction of this boarding house at 52 Cornelia Road Toongabbie 2146
   This introduces Commercial and high movement activity in a residential area
   No surrounding property is of the suggest height (FOUR FLOORS)
   No surrounding property is of Commercial Use
   The property is at a roundabout and will adversely affect traffic
   Surrounding properties values will be significantly devalued
   Surrounding properties views and privacy will be adversely affected
   Assume the zoning of the property is RESIDENTIAL, not Commercial.
   The easements requirements do not fit in with those of a residential property

6. This is by no means a suitable location for a boarding house, given that the vehicular access is directly into a busy roundabout connecting 2 main thoroughfares.

7. This location is highly unsuitable for a boarding house.

   The location of the driveway is directly on a busy roundabout. The traffic created by the boarding house will no doubt cause this roundabout to be more dangerous than it already is, with most residents required to perform u-turns to enter their driveway.

   I am concerned that the currently quiet community will be disrupted by a boarding house. This is a very quiet, family friendly community of people. We would like to keep it that way.
