Woolworths Warehouse and Customer Fulfilment Centre, Marrickville

I object to the development of Woolworths Ware and Customer Fulfilment Centre, Marrickville for the following reasons,
Operating Hours: The increase in noise and light levels due to the 24 hours, 7 days per week proposed is unacceptable. My family and I live near the proposed site and it is not okay for us to be subjected to a 24 hour industrial operation right on our doorstep.
Traffic: The increase in truck activity along Edinburgh Road will lead to poorer health outcomes for my family as we live near the proposed facility

Please find attached EES response

The reasons for my objections to this proposal are as follows:
I reside in the residential area zoned R1 & R2 in your Acoustic Assessment Report, and am very concerned about how severely my residence and my neighbour’s residence will be impacted by the planned building and operations of this Warehouse & Customer Fulfilment Centre.

Noise from Edinburgh road is already at an untenable level due to the construction that is currently occurring all around the immediate vicinity. To have the proposed Warehouse & Customer Fulfilment Centre approved to both be constructed and to operate on a 24 /7 basis will greatly impact on our local residents because of the additional noise & traffic generated from both the construction and the additional traffic entering this warehouse complex. Whilst we may be on the edge of the industrial area, this area is still zoned residential and its unreasonable to expect the residents to have to deal with the catastrophic noise of jack hammers / drills and workmen shouting on a 24 /7 basis.

In addition, your reports state that the main vehicular access to the site for passenger vehicles is proposed to be provided via a signalised access point from Edinburgh Road, opposite Smidmore Street, and that the heavy vehicle / loading vehicle access will occur via the proposed Sydney Steel Road access points, which is adjacent to other industrial / commercial areas. We are concerned about the level of noise that will be generated by any heavy vehicles using their compression brakes entering of exiting the facility and the impact that will have on the local residents. We request that vehicles above the 3-tonne size are restricted from turning left into Edinburgh Road when exiting the complex to reduce the volume of heavy vehicles travelling past the residential zones in Edinburgh road.

It is the proposed emergency access point at the western end of the site on Edinburgh Road that will have the most impact on the local residents as it opposite the existing residential areas. The disruption to the residents is due to two factors- the high volume of traffic noise and also the visual disturbance generated from the car headlights as they enter & exit the car park. This is completely unreasonable when there is the option of having all entries and exits via Sydney Steel road which is not flanked by residential properties.
This proposed emergency access point has the very real potential to become another routine entrance / exit point for the customers & the heavy vehicles as a short cut to avoid any congestion that may be occurring at the other exit/ entrance points. Your proposal includes the Traffic Impact Assessment report which has determined weekday afternoon and Saturday traffic generations of 360 and 820 vehicles per hour two-way respectively. If even 10% of the traffic utilised the emergency access point it will be a nightmare for the residents in the area. We oppose any access via the western end of Edinburgh road into or out of this warehouse complex.

In addition, a building of seven storeys is too large a development and will have a significant impact on the social fabric and local environment which is constantly being eroded by these types of large developments. The project plan includes the removal of 66 trees but no equivalent green area has been designed adjacent to the residential areas to offset the impact of such a development environmentally.
The current re-development of the Marrickville Metro shopping centre has already seen all the large trees that graced the full length of Smidmore street removed and not being replaced. With these additional 66 trees being removed as part of this Warehouse & Customer Fulfilment Centre proposal there will be an impact on heat retention etc in the immediate vicinity for the residents.
Corporations such as Woolworths have a social responsibility to consider the concerns that this type of development, due to its size and design will have on the local residents and manage those design issues accordingly.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I have lived in this area for many many years. I am aware of the history of the proposed site and I am supportive of it's use as a commercial area. The proposed development however is an outrageous overreach and will make my community unhealthy and unlivable.

The proposal for a 7 story office complex is obscene. This building will be 3 or 4 times higher than any building in the surrounding area. The grotesque Woolworths sign will glow at night and cause reduced privacy and poorer sleep.

The proposal for 24/7 operations will severely impact sleep and quality of life in our community. We already suffer under airport noise but at least the airport curfew gives us some respite between 11:00pm and 6:00am. I ask that you give us some quiet time by restricting operational hours to match those of the airport.

The increase in traffic will also cause severe impact to quality of life on our area. Edinburgh Rd is already carrying heavy truck traffic and the proposal seeks to increase that by over 20% with 24/7 operations.

Regards
Jim Fletcher

With these additional 66 trees being removed as part of this Warehouse & Customer Fulfilment Centre proposal there will be an impact on heat retention etc in the immediate vicinity for the residents. There will also be an impact on the native birds that use these trees as nesting and roosting sites.
Corporations such as Woolworths have a social responsibility to consider the concerns that this type of development, due to its size and design will have on the local residents and manage those design issues accordingly.

This project has not adequately considered the residents of Bourne Street and Leicester Streets and environmental impacts. Any impacts should be minimised and counterbalanced with strategies to give back to residents and the environment.
Many residents and home owners in Bourne Street have English as a second language and are elderly. I believe more effort should be expected of developers such as the ones for the current application to engage these stakeholders and learn about their expectations and needs.
There has been significant development in our immediate vicinity for some time now and the effect of developments has been accumulative. We have been exposed to significant dust, noise and most recently our on street car parking has been taken away by builders and workmen. Please provide alternative parking for people working on the project.
The dust at the Marrickville Metro extension resulted in me being bedridden over a weekend after I walked past large piles of dry dust and debri during strong wings. Please ensure the developers of Woolworths Warehouse and Customer Fulfilment Centre provide adequate management of build waste and that this includes regular internal and external audit.
In term of environmental impact, there has been an accumulated sink created with no adequate consideration of giving back - too many trees are being cut down. I am concern about the heat retention and glare of buildings on residents. Please provide an adequate green space easement to the footpath including plant height layers to provide a better space for residents, improved aesthetics, reduce heat creation in the area from these new builds and for partial screening of the building.
I don’t believe enough effort has gone into aesthetics of all the new developments around the shopping centre extension. The quality of finishings does not augur with the upward trending social status of the neighbourhood and is disrespectful to the residents who boarder this industrial area. Please ensure the fulfilment centre build is attractively designed rather than cheaply put together.
Finally please find alternative creative solutions to entry and exit from the Woolworths Warehouse and Fulfillment Centre Marrickville, to reduce traffic impact on Edinburgh Street.
Please hold developers accountable for ensuring that any approved plans and publicised plans are the same as what is actually created.
Bourne street residents have always been very supportive and tolerant of Woolworths. Now is the time for Woolworths to give back to this residential community. Residents are disappointed with what has been provided to date.
