    I support the redevelopment of the site in principle. However, as part owner in an adjacent building, I do have some concerns about the application in its current state.

    Section 5.4 of the application : There is already a lot of noise from residents at 313 Maroubra rd roof terrace, keeping adjoining residents awake into the late hours of the night - the proposed roof terrace is undesirable from a noise perspective to other residents. These roof top spaces are used, frequently for noisy celebrations with many visitors in attendance as people can't fit into the small units for entertaining. If they are not frequently used as suggested in the application, then why include them?

    It's is not that clear from the drawings, but the new building should not be any taller than buildings next to it (does getting rid of the roof terrace help with reducing height?) nor should it be set any more forward to the curb (including balconies) than the adjacent buildings - the aerial drawings seem to suggest that it does protrude further due to balconies. To allow these things will:
    - dwarf the adjacent buildings;
    - not be in keeping with the streetscape; and
    - block valuable sun light and district views,
    all of which surrounding and adjoining residents rely on to preserve their own property values and quality of living.

    The windows should not look into those of the existing apartments on either side. Again it is not clear from my laman's reading of the plans how these will align with windows of adjacent apartments.

    Please ensure no noisy air conditioning units on the external part of the building.

    Please ensure landscaping doesn't result in the planting of tall trees that will simply further block sunlight and views for adjoining owners.
