1. 1.Having looked at the plans for this development, and as the property owner of 6 Powena street, I need to question whether there is enough off-street parking for the proposed occupancy rate.
   The plans do not appear to have taken into account turning space requirements for vehicles parked under the apartments with regards to the other supposed parking on the property.
   The side of the property bordering Powena Street would safely fit two vehicles whilst the long roadside border ( Curena St ) provides no safe on-road parking.
   The lower portion of Powena Street, west of Curena St, is currently used by people visiting houses on Meredith Crescent as well as parking for people already living in the existing houses in Powena Street. Most nights the available off street parking is used.

   The majority of premises in the lower portion of Powena St also have young children so anything that increases the traffic and car movements also increases the potential for accident.

   2.It is my understanding that the subdivision of 7 Meredith Cres. was under the proviso that the new structure would not be higher that the existing roofline of the property.
   Has this been ignored with the current three storey planning application?
