1. Traffic is of concern, especially given that the large development approved for the bend on Curwin Terrace ,(outside the Mission’s Aged Care precinct) will increase even further the volume exponentially and may not have been factored into this application.
   The Boulevard provides access to/ egress from the Mission’s other entity, Wheller on the Park Retirement Village, where the average age of Independently living Residents is 78 years. Increasingly other members of the public are using The Boulevard as a quick through road and many drive at high speed. Only two weeks ago, a passing through driver lost control of his vehicle, knocked down a developed tree and came to a stop straddling the drain situated between the Parkside Kerb and Parkside fence. It would help if the Boulevard could be designated as an internal suburban Road and traffic restriction lowered from 40 Kim to say 20 Kim.

   Increased traffic noise is also of concern. Boulevard numbers 1 to 20 are privately leased Villas. Cluster 1 , 1 to 6, were fitted with acoustic screening as part of their development approval. Cluster 3, 13 to 16 and Cluster 4 ,17 to 20, are set well back from the Roadway. However, Cluster 2, 7 to 12 were the first built as part of Stage 1 of the WotP development. These 6 villas are quite close to the roadway and none has any acoustic screening. Furthermore, pollution from vehicular emissions is high, evidenced by dust intrusion and black “soot” accumulations.

   I ask that these matters be taken into consideration.
