    Where is the parking on the street?! Problem here already.
    Why is there a DA of this kind when the other DA on Flinders St not built yet? It not allowing for B6 zone variance of activity and council are looking very prone to developers money again!
    The building is TOO BIG for this street and locks out other B6 buildings of this type. Why are you letting a developer cash in on Wollongong and lock out the local owners of other B6 properties!?
    Setbacks are still against LEP! NO VARIATIONS please. Good for one, good for all,.
    Building too high and shadow on sth side blocks out signage to the north viewers and competes with any other building in the area. Too much, too high and obtrusive! 9 storey's, should be more like 6 max.
    B6 zoning states that must not compete with economic center, but you are entertaining more retail space in substitute for the B6 business types definition's!
    This will remove a long standing business's and replace with more retail/office space. Not needed here really! No contracts for office space been released which means I am correct in three businesses leaving flinders st and NOT replaced! B6 definition reduced.
    You are reducing the view corridors from my Edward st. playing with my home value by blocking out mount keira feature!!!
    Most reports given are word play, written to sound like compliance is achieved all while isolating other properties on street. e.g. "designed for future vision of street" yet "satisfies the culture of the street". HOW CAN THEY BE THE SAME!!!??? Its verbal B.S made to fool.
    How about having some proper sustainability build into the building? Such as Solar panels on roof to add to the grid? How about large water tanks for common water use? They do not future proof this building, they just do the BARE MINIMUM to pass the DA tests, for profit, dont be fooled WCC.
