1. I would like to comment on the driveway location and the removal of trees. This area has a great native heritage and it is therefore important to retain as many trees as possible - especially street trees. The type of trees are not noted on the plan so it is difficult to determine their significance.
   
   There is an existing driveway on the site which arrives at the same location as the proposed garage. However the design includes a new driveway which requires the removal of three trees - T1, T5, T6. My question is why cant the trees be retained through the use of the existing driveway alignment? It would not be difficult to manoeuvre a car along this alignment to the proposed garage and therefore I can see no reason to relocate the driveway whilst at the same time retaining three more trees.

   There is an existing footpath which ends one property to the west. Shouldn't this development include a footpath out the front for future extension of the existing footpath just 10m away? Eventually one would hope that all streets have footpaths in future - we need to plan ahead for this and include footpaths in all new developments to reduce the burden on Council.
