1. A complete over development of the site across from the Primary school which will create more dangerous traffic on an already busy road, Other developments have recently been knocked back for this exact reason.

   It is also not in keeping with the leafy aspect of the area.

2. Pathetic, cramming more buildings into an area that has no infrastructure to support the increase. The next request will be to reduce the statutory requirements of car spaces.

   Has anyone not noticed that the entire area between Scoresby Rd, Ferntree Gully Rd, Stud Rd and High St/Burwood Hwy does not have any traffic control to allow people to get out of their streets. Kathryn Rd and Ftg Rd, grid locked because nobody had the forethought to put the pedestrian crossing for the skate park on this intersection instead. I believe the residents of the area at the time argued for this.

   Just love the signs up around the area stating that Knox Council are making improvements. The upgrades on the water supply has to happen because they wouldn't be able to justify the over development.

   As a resident of this area for 15 years, I did not and will never vote a Real Estate agent into office of the Knox Council.

3. Trudi we argued for traffic lights in council but it is a Vic Roads responsibility and they won't install lights unless 4 people are killed at the intersection over four years. No intersection qualifies in the Knoxfield estate. Knoxfield is the only estate that does not have traffic lights to control exits at any exit street.
   For every development we lose a couple of trees. Whatever happened to the leafy image of Knox. New residents only want to remove trees. We need more Gardens for Wildlife.

4. Ian and Trudi your comments are true and the discussion of many.
   I work 1 km away from my home and need to take my car. In the past it took me 4 mins to get there, it know takes 15 mins and Im having to take risks most days just to get out onto Stud rd.
