1. Another further blight on this street that previously had a two storey covenant! Approvals such as this do not consider the quality of life of existing residents of long term with no interest in selling for profit.

3. The area is congested enough as it is with all the other high rise property. Mornings, lunchtime and afternoons through Oak Rd are unbearable with traffic at a stand still and the lights unable to cope with the amount of cars travelling through this area. The roads need to be upgraded dramatically to accomodate the traffic at the moment let alone with another high density property being built in the area. Council need to give themselves an uppercut with the mess that's been created around Kirrawee.

4. I agree with Steve. I was in my car travelling along Oak Road trying to cross President Ave at the lights one busy afternoon to go to Flora Street. The traffic was banked up all through Oak Road shopping centre and I couldn't go across-very dangerous.

   When I finally was able to safely cross I then wanted to turn left into Flora Street to my home. A had a long single row of traffic ahead of me.

   So turning left or right into Flora Street with only one lane of through traffic is the problem. Oak Road needs another lane through the shopping centre due to the increase of cars on the roads.

5. The Fauna place cul de sac is already a driving nightmare. With parking permitted on both sides of the road and tight entries to the carpark and the child care centre it is a congested mess. Please stop disregarding the happiness of existing residents.

6. I agree with all comments above. Traffic is a disaster coming through Kirrawee at any time of the day. Please sutherland shire council listen to your residents and stop this, its destroying the family friendly area. Another developer trying to make money without any consideration for current residents.

7. Sutherland Shire in time will become another ugly area full of terrible designed high rise apartments. Congested streets, no parking, Councillors love Developers & support them all the time. Cram lots of people into high rise apartments & the 'Rates money' just rolls in. Dog owners need more clean, safe Dog Parks for small Dogs it is desperately needed. Council Staff have told me they have no intention of building Dog Parks for small Dogs. Council wants little Dogs to share Dog Parks with PitBulls, Rottweilers, Staffies, Amstaffs & large X Breeds. Look what happened to the helpless little Dog (on a Leash) attacked by 2 very powerful, large, deadly killer Dogs (unleashed) in Cronulla Mall - 2 days ago. Council doesn't understand, a little Dog is incapable of
   protecting itself against large or very large Dogs. Perhaps the New Mayor, Steve Simpson can understand the plight of owners with small Dogs & the danger of them being killed in Dog Parks.

8. A great consideration will need to be applied to the parking and traffic strategy if this development is approved. The other comments make great points that there is substantial traffic and congestion to the areas already. Apartment blocks are not providing enough basement parking with any excess cars spilling out onto the street. Parking in this area is already difficult due to its close location to the train station and town centre, where the close by car parking is timed (in most spots). This proposal does not appear to align with the local area of Kirrawee particularly in this location of single/double level homes. This will ruin the street for this local community.

9. Unbelievably this DA has been passed. Sutherland Shonky Council should be the new name for this institute. The council have shown they just don't care about what residents have to say. Even when giving valid points in relation to traffic issues already in the area and this street already. The council are just greedy and what ever happened to the rule brought in about councillors not allowed to have any involvement in building/real estate industry or having any self vested interest. There is so much corruption at this level of government because its not under media scrutiny like state and Federal these clowns get away with a lot of under the table deals.
