Mod 13- Excision Tarpaulin Factory

I am writing in support of DA Number: 2016/132 proposed for 127 Cosgrove Road, Strathfield South/Belfield. I ask that NSW Planning decide in favour of the development .

Over the past 2-3 years a number of incompatible and inappropriate developments have been approved in the adjoining industrial area. A s a result the residents have suffered dreadful noise, dust and distress. Our lives have been negatively impacted enormously. For a change we have the opportunity for an industry to open in the nearby industrial area which is quiet, clean and for use by the residents. However it is denied approval.


What makes this refusal even more worrying for the residents is potential alternative developments should the garden centre not be approved. Please save the people of Belfield from the likely impact of yet another undesirable industry on our doorsteps, by approving the much wanted and residential friendly garden centre. We are already burdened with too many waste transfer facilities, container terminals, truck and bus depots, excavation equipment storage, scrap metal facilities - all of which are noisy and care nothing for the residential amenity or visual appearance of the area. The garden centre will beautify and improve the environment and surrounds, not make it worse.

Approval of the garden centre will have the following benefits for the residents:
* and will be enjoyed and used by the local community.
* The design and maintenance of the garden centre will be a visual improvement to the area
* It will protect he heritage buildings
* It will have minimum noise impact and no dust impact
* It will improve rather than reduce our property values
* The traffic generated will be of far less impact than that caused by alternative options. A look at the situation in Madeline st where trucks queue and block the street trying to enter sites clearly shows what could happen if the garden centre is refused and alternative industries establish at the site which bring in constant flows of heavy vehicles all day every day.

The garden centre is a wonderful option for this site. Please approve it at 127 Cosgrove Rd.

I have attached a PDF file as my objection.

Happy for flower power

I support flower power

Please find attached two documents being my submission in relation the EILC Modification 13 proposal, together with an Appendix.

Please find attached my submission relating to Modification Application for 127 Cosgrove Road South Strathfield.

The proposed development is considered a desirable outcome and compatible land use for adjoining residential area. Flower power is a clean and quiet business.
The Garden Centre will visually improve the area and add value to adjoining residences as it will become more visually desirable that what is currently there
The facility will be used by the local community
The historical building are to be retained and improved
The reserve will not be impacted
The land is likely to remain in it's current state a discared warehouse which is an eyesore if the DA to Flower Power is not Approved.

Flower Power is a clean business and their garden centre will visually improve the area. It is a facility that will be used by the local community and visitors, while providing local residents with employment opportunities. Futhermore, if there is a cafe, it will be an aesthetically pleasing place to meet for breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea. The historical buildings will be retained and preserved and the frog reserve will not be impacted. It will a business that will have a positive impact for the local community.
