1. PLANNING APPLICATION NO DA/276/2015
   I live next door on a neighboring property. I have lived in the duplex with my family of six people for 5 years now.
   I am writing because I haven't found further details about the proposed development, only seen notification in the post for development of 5 town houses.
   Without having seen the plans, I want to share my dismay to see such a proposal on land that could comfortably fit two -three townhouses, but five townhouses in excessive for the land size.
   I am concerned about :
   1. Traffic - I have witnessed an incident where a driver turning at high speeds on a Saturday (not peak traffic) from Adderton Road to Kissing Point Road, skid onto the foot path outside my property damaging turf along the side of the road.
   I have also witnessed two identitical accidents occurred a year apart, a car flipped over on 148 neighbour's driveway. I can see rail fence are being built to prevent cars from opposite side of the road travelling at high speeds fly over the road.
   I am afraid the new rail fence will have the effect of bouncing cars back to my driveway in case of freaky accidents.
   I fear for future where the occupants of 146 Kissing Point Road will be exiting and returning to driveways along the same section on 3 properties on Kissing Point Road, 140-142 (7 townhouses), 144 (duplex) and 146 (proposed 5 townhouses) will cause traffic incidents and slow traffic as cars drive at speeds of 70km/h, vehicles turning onto Kissing Point Road.
   I fear for my family especially young children's safety at the front yard.

   2. Neighboring residential character -This section on Kissing Point Road is loosing character.
   There are inconsistent dwelling sizes relevant to land size; view in sequence from 138 Kissing Point Road there is a house, 7 townhouses, duplex, proposed 5 townhouses, a house, house on the corner of Kissing Point Road and Burke St.
   I would recommend a duplex style on the property for the land size it occupies.
   I sincerely ask you consider the points above and safety of residents over developers ambition.
   I look forward to reviewing plans for the property for further comments.
   p.s I have not made a donation or gift to a Councillor or Council employee.
