    The land at 11 & 13 Edgecombe Street appears to be a typical house size measuring 25 x approx 40 approx 1,000 m2. Seven dwellings on an average size house block is overcrowded and if approved will have to accommodate two cars per dwelling 14 cars and possibly 40 persons.
    Height and mass/bulk are visually unacceptable.
    The development overlooks and /or overshadows adjoining residences.

    Car parking and traffic. It is not desirable to have multiple vehicle crossings as they reduce the availability of kerb side street parking.
    Private open space is insufficient. Forty square metres in total is the
    minimum, with one part being at least 25m2 with a minimum
    dimension of 3m so that the space is practically useable. Private open
    space should not be located in street set-backs at the front of dwellings.

    The proposed development does not integrate with the neighbourhood
    character.
    Important characteristics include roof form, building height,
    building materials, landscape and fencing.

    The density of the development is excessive.

    Please ensure Councillor Phillip Healy has some involvement of this application. It is inappropriate.
