    Hello there, I wish to request that we be provided with a copy of the advertising for this proposed amendment to the planning permit, from what we can see on your web site, we note the following:
    1. Part of the building is now 2 metres higher than the current approved permit, however this change has not been mentioned in the application for the amendment.
    2. Signage must be kept at minimum and low in height, alternatively, it will cause light pollution to ourselves and our neighbours.
    3. In regards to McDonald's, it must be noted that the main development (the epicurean centre) has promised to be of good, high aesthetics ie organic materials such as rammed earth etc. any Fast food outlet must be made to follow a high, architecturally aesthetic style. This is important, as the the site is highly visible and it is the entry to the beautifully quaint and the most sort after village in the Yarra Valley.
    4. In many villages/city's in Europe and other places around the world, where they have allowed McDonald's restaurants to be included in amongst their picturesque areas, McDonald's have had to lift their game, by including highly architecturally designed buildings, which do not stand out and scream out of its environment.
    5. Council has a duty of care to ensure that this overall site provides very high aesthetics, including landscaping and vegetation buffers in order to tone down the development and rather provide a Welcoming development into our beautiful Village that is worthy of its environment.
