    I oppose the development of 433 Ocean Beach Road, Umina

    Please consider the community response to both developments for recent development applications for the following applications against the below residential properties; All public submission should be considered due to the similar location and proposed occupancy and similarities of this development.

    • 5 Osborn Ave , Umina https://plan.s.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au/Pages/XC.Track/SearchApplication.aspx?id=011.2018.00055206.001

    • 454 Ocean Beach Road, Umina - https://plan.s.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au/Pages/XC.Track/SearchApplication.aspx?id=011.2019.00056417.001

    Including the non-complying boundary setbacks.

    Front setback is 4.4 to 5.8 metres (where it should be 6.0 metres), side boundaries are 1.6 to 2.6 metres (where it should be 3.5 metres) and rear setback is 4.62 metres (where it should be 6.0 metres).

    Notwithstanding the non-compliances, the statement says the development meets the desired character elements for the medium density area and meets the majority of council’s development and planning objectives.

    The statement says strict enforcement of the development standard, in this instance, would hinder the desired development outcome for the site as well as the orderly and economic use of the site

    We currently live behind the proposed development and we also oppose the development due to the following

    Privacy; The rear of our property which will be visible from the rear of the proposed application as all living spaces and Pool of our property currently face the elevation of the back of the proposed dwelling. I have two young children and this possess a privacy and security concern for my family. This would also overlook the childcare centre at the rear of 3 Osborn and our block which would also be visible from the rear of the proposed dwelling.

    Sunlight to the rear elevation of the proposed development will block the sun which would affect our heating, potential solar , and would also block sunlight in to our outdoor living spaces

    Will reduce the valuation of our property in relation to the above concerns as well as neighbouring on micro apartments, boarding housing, which will be cheaply constructed. How will the construction address impacts of high residential issues surrounding the following points ;

    • Car Park Space
    • Number of Dwellings
    • Noise
    • Privacy
    • Traffic
    • Environment

    The excessive hard surface (73%) to soft surface ratio is part of a huge environmental problem here on the Peninsula.
    In addition, the size of the 1 bedroom apartments is the same as the studio apartments, so in reality it is nothing but a cluster of cheap and concerning residences accommodating people close to a vulnerable community of elderly and young.
    As commented so many times previously- build this type of accommodation in Gosford!
