    I want to oppose this application to build a huge complex butting up against the Newbury building. This would completely shut me in with no light which will significantly reduce my comfort and health and well-being. The noise from construction would affect all residence and create a lot of health hazards for our appartments and pool. We would never be able to open our doors and have light coming in. This would significantly affect the value of my property.

    I strongly object to the application to the above planning proposal for a multitude of reasons as stated below;

    1. Obstruction of view; which ultimately will reduce the amount of natural light and therefore affect quality of life.
    2. Sun obstruction over pool area as well as the potential new dwelling overlooking the Newbury’s pool area. This is a concerning privacy issue for current Newbury residents if they were to use and facilitate the pool area.
    3. If above planning proposal is approved, the construction work would disrupt residents, as well as create dust and debris over pool area as well onto residents balconies and furthermore, inside their apartments. This is a major concern and can potentially cause health hazards for residents with properties that face over High Street.
    4. Residents of the Newbury are required to pay body corporate fee’s for the general maintenance of the building. If above planning proposal is approved, the pool will become uninhabitable for use, due the potential dwelling blocking natural light therefore, residents of the Newbury's body corporate fee’s are unjustified.
    5. If above planning proposal is approved, it would ultimately devalue all properties facing the High Street side.

    I hope you consider my submission of objection to the application stated above.

    Kindest,
    Stephanie

    good day
    i would like too strongly oppose the development,i live in the newbury building and building a 12 storey building in my front yard would not only dramatically cut the value of my house in half but would also take my enjoyment away.
    i would recieve zero light and would be living in a construction site for the length of the build.
    we love where we live and want to continue on our merry way
    With Respect
    Michael
