    I would like to express my disapproval and concerns as to the proposed development at 9 Sinclair Cres, Wentworth Falls. To start with I never received any written notification to this development.
    My concerns are as follows:
    (A) Sinclair Cres is a very busy street with cars, pushbikes, pedestrians with families all heading to and from the lake and also local residents. There is only one path that is accessible to parents with strollers and wheelchairs. I consider this to be extremely dangerous if there is to be a vast amount of building and trades vehicles attending the development. The road is also is need of repair and will be affected more so by heavy vehicles. As well if there is an incident on the Great Western Highway Sinclair Cres is the ONLY alternative if incident between Leura and Wentwoth Falls.This would cause total ciaos with these incidents if the street was over run with work vehicles. It recently had to be the main thoroughfare in a recent incident that had GW Highway blocked for hours. There does not appear to be any off street parking so where will the trades park. Totally dangerous for people using the street and without doubt it will cause accidents!.
    (B) The property is extremely close to Jamison Creek which I can see will be impacted on with building and construction and also when built what are the safe guards to keep the creek environmentally sustained with NO POLLUTION entering it.
    (C) Obviously the development will involve a lot of clearing of trees and once again the run off will go directly into the stream. Impacting on the creek and the flow on effect to Wentworth Falls. I feel it will also risk in adjoining properties being impacted by flooding due to any problems that occur due to increased clearing of vegetation..
    (D) This property is a swamp flood plain and totally unsuitable for development.
    (E) The plans for the large dwelling on poles are not in character with this street, it will impact character of the street and as a resident I see every day large amounts of tourists stopping and taking photos of one of the most beautiful streets in the Blue Mountains. Wedding photos, family photos ALL taking advantage of its beauty.
    (F) I know there will be a lot less tourists to The Lake if there is always constant construction going on.
    (G) Finally I feel that no matter what we should be protecting Jamison Creek, environment and the wildlife....let the land be maintained as open land in order to do this.
