Why We Object
We have analyzed the planning documents and identified critical breaches that threaten our community's future and local environment.
The proposed site threatens local biodiversity and mature tree canopies. We demand a thorough assessment of the ecological damage this development will cause to our area.
Our local streets are already at capacity. This project will introduce dangerous traffic levels, creating gridlock and safety risks for pedestrians and school children.
The scale and design of this proposal are incompatible with our neighborhood's historic character. We must protect the architectural integrity of our local streets.
Local services, including drainage and waste management, are already struggling. This development lacks the necessary infrastructure to support such a high-density increase.
