I object to this DA. There is no arborist report to identify which trees are for removal and how the remaining trees will be protected. There are some beautiful street trees in Dorset Street next to this property and it would be tragic if they were damaged due to not following proper tree protection procedures. Without appropriate arborist information the DA should not be considered or approved.
The Statement of Environmental Effects report provides several maps on pages 12 and 13. The identification of the site in the DA is inaccurate in all three maps. This means that approval of this DA would be questionable administratively.
There is also a scarcity on other information which makes it difficult to access this DA. The City of Parramatta Council should request further information before proper consideration for this DA can be undertaken.
