1. No reduction in statutory car parking requirements should be granted. The medical precinct is renowned for being devoid of reasonably priced and available parking. Medical staff need somewhere to park and so do patients. In this instance the Applicant should be requested to demonstrate that the proposal will meet the likely parking demand from both staff and patients in addition to that of any permanent residents.

2. The precinct bounded by Arnold, Nelson, Whitehorse and Elgar Rd's is going to see more high rise apartment buildings being built over the next five years. This will increase the number of cars in the area as well as the demand for the limited numbers of on street parking which will result in more cars being parked in surrounding local streets. If this applicant wants to develop this site they should bare the costs instead of trying to transfer the costs and burdens of car parking onto local residents. Therefore no reduction in statutory car parking requirement's should be granted for this development.
