19 Hugo Street Stirling WA 6021

Hi we have moved from Doubleview approximately 3 years ago to Hugo street Stirling because of the parking issues in Doubleview, council allowed 3 dwellings on small blocks causing not only parking issues but also increasing traffic in our street.
We definitely do not want the same for Hugo street. Plus the poor people living opposite & either side of this three story dwelling….it will dwarf surrounding houses!.
This has a potential to set a precedent for more apartment complexes to be developed on Hugo street.
Please DO NOT allow this to happen as we are very happy that we made the move and definitely do not want to move from Hugo street! Thanks.

Our household strongly objects to the construction of a three story complex as stated in DA22/0554 as it will most certainly over shadow adjacent single story homes and obstruct any existing vista provided to those homes. Additionally it may increase the possibility of overseeing into into neighbouring properties.

Existing street side parking will surely be taken up by visitors to the property and increased traffic flow will exacerbate noise levels. the City has many development plans for this Precinct such as the possibility of a Wave park and the Stephenson Avenue extension. We enjoy living in Hugo Street and enjoy its closely knit community spirit and strive for its retention.

We wish to state our opposition to the proposed development for 21 Hugo Street. We reside in the next street, Elton Place, and 21 Hugo Street is directly behind our house. A 3 story apartment complex would directly overlook our back yard and impinge on our privacy.
This is a quiet suburban neighbourhood, but a greater number of residents in a small area would result in a corresponding increase in noise levels, especially on weekends and at night.
We already have Osborne Park Hospital to the west and the City of Stirling office blocks to the east which have caused parking problems in the past, resulting in street signage to ease street congestion. The proposed development would exacerbate the problem.

The home owners at a nearby residence in Hugo Street strongly object to this planning application. Filling this street with multilevel apartments is going to negatively impact our street and our community in a number of ways. The council seem hell bent on cramming as many people in to smaller and smaller spaces and removing parking options for its residents. This street currently has just 8 recessed bays for parking and during the period I have lived here, options for street parking have been restricted and removed. Parking was never a problem in the past but, with the change in council strategies and the push to allow developers to build upwards wherever they feel there is profit to be made, will create future parking problems and increased traffic here. This is currently a lovely quiet, family oriented, safe residential street. Crime rates are low and traffic volume is low. Potential changes in the style of housing and reduced parking options are not only going to affect the landscape, asthetics and the community here but will affect house values. Apartment blocks are ugly and are not something that we want or need in this area. The housing here consists of single and double storey properties and this principle must be maintained or the street will be utterly ruined for the sake of short term profit. We categorically oppose this development and will challenge any attempt at the council approving it by actively joining together as a street community to oppose it.

We strongly object to the construction of 3 story complex building as stated in DA22/0554. Increased traffic flow will exacerbate noise level, will create parking problems and will ruin our live standard. No more then R30 development should be permitted. Is no point to create a ghetto's style like in Sydney.

As a resident of Hugo Street, it is not the apartment building itself that I have issue. It is, however, my concern of what appears to be the extreme lack of parking available to the future residents of the building. There is already minimal street parking and with a thoroughfare to the local council offices and Osborne Park Hospital traffic has become ever increasing over the last few years impacting on street parked cars, along with the bus route. With 12 apartments and on average most homes have a minium of 2 cars, simple maths would prevail, that a miniumum of 24 bays, plus extra visitor bays would be required. Please explain to me how this proposal assumes that a total of 15 car bays is anywhere near sufficient, efficient or appropriate. Again it appears that money has of course come before safety, practicality and common sense. I ask this plan is not approved in its current form and extra bays are strongly considered if this apartment is to go ahead.

Our household strongly objects to the construction of three-story complex building as stated in DA22/0554.

Hugo Street currently comprises of single story (west side) and double story (east side) houses. The apartment does not fit in with the current street-scape, and will tower over adjacent single-story properties on the west side, and block sunlight and the sea-breeze to the double-story properties on the east side. Approving this building will also set a bad precedent, where the west side of Hugo Street is likely to be completely replaced with giant ugly apartment buildings put up by greedy developers.

The addition of 12 apartments will drastically increase traffic in the area, as well as result in increased parking problems for residents. This is an on-going problem, which the council has not addressed.

The addition of high-density housing in the area will also lead to an increase in crime and anti-social behavior, in what is a quiet and peaceful community.

I ask that the plan is not approved in its current form, and that local residents are consulted before this building is to go ahead in some form.

With regards this proposal, we wish to object to the erection of a twelve multiple dwellings on this site. Hugo street already has a bus route going up and down plus several waste and medical waste and delivery trucks using this street for both Osborne Park Hospital and also Fresenius Kidney care clinic; there is already a massive parking problem in the area without adding another 12 households who could potentially have 24 or more cars between them, plus visitors cars. There is not enough parking for the current situation and its very badly managed. Currently our visitors cannot ever find parking, how much worse will it be when we have dense dwelling added to the current problem? This is a quiet street and not conducive to high rise apartments. It will infringe on the peace and tranquility of the surrounding neighbors and be unsightly, plus add a huge headache with regards parking. A resounding no from us!

We live in Civic Place, just around the corner from Hugo Street and find it hard to believe in the necessity to build such a big block of units in such a place as 19 Hugo Street. Three stories comprising of twelve units is excessive and totally out of sync with the rest of the street. One parking space per unit for two and three bedroom apartments is totally inadequate along with three visitors parking bays, as this will cause a major change to local traffic and parking available in Hugo Street and surrounds. It is already quite busy and at time dangerous attempting to leave our house by car, as there is a big increase in traffic from the Osborne Park Hospital, and a lot of cyclists and scooter riders let alone having to deal more than likely with street parking if this building goes ahead. It is irresponsible of City of Stirling to allow this planning application to proceed. A building of this height will also over look existing properties and encroach on people's privacy so perhaps developer should comply with units already built in the area and have three single story or double story homes allowed. City of Stirling should be concerned for local residents and disallow this application.
