While this application does not directly impact on my property I wish to express my concern over the worrying trend of Clarence Council's approval of general "in fill" developments in the Rose Bay area which will, if allowed to continue, spoil the general amenity of the suburb, increase the traffic on the narrow streets and add to the loss of trees. Kaoota Road, Lena street and East Derwent Highway developments are the latest additions of urban ugliness.
Character homes are also being cloned as rendered look-a-likes.
If this proposal is approved a beautiful property in Cornwall Street will be lost.
Please stop approvals of back yard developments. Where are future generations of children expected to get their exercise?

I wish to register my disagreement with Susan Hobday's comment. It is eminently sensible to have reasonable development of underutliised land in places like Rose Bay, increasing the number of people that enjoy its privileged position in regard to aspects like access to good nearby schools, transport and recreational infrastructure and proximity to the CBD and major shopping centres. This is far preferable to shoving all development out to urban fringes. Local businesses also benefit from increasing the local population. Local traffic is not that big an issue, and parks for play are plentiful.
