I object to this proposal for a number of reasons. As a young person, I appreciate the governments attempt to increase housing density however this is not the way to do it. The government, without consultation, plans to implement these irreversible changes that will impact all of the families of lindfield, along with our beautiful wildlife. This proposal destroys gorgeous heritage houses, which are otherwise so protected, and will completely alter the quiet, classic landscape of Lindfield. Not to mention how our infrastructure would now have to cater for the inhabitants of 167 apartments, space which we don’t have. Traffic, noise pollution and much more would congest the area, causing issues for all people living in Lindfield and people passing through. Furthermore our “leafy north shore” suburb would be no more, as this proposal would have an incredible impact on our tree canopy, and mature trees, along with disturbing the fauna around during construction, and destroying their habitats in the long term. There are other ways to increase housing density without destroying the nature and heritage of Lindfield.

Please see attached for details.

We enjoy living in a quiet and friendly suburb surrounded with many beautiful trees. Our area is an ideal place for downsizers, very convenient, yet very quiet. WE DO NOT WANT ANY 9 SOREY APARTMENT BLOCKS which would destroy our beautiful nature and disturb peace and quiet in our neighbourhood! Instead, please build more medium density, spacious high-quality blocks more suitable for downsizers. There is a huge demand for such accommodation in Lindfield.

This is inapropriate development. It is too large/bulky and incompatible with the neighbourhood. Inapropriate without thought to traffic and parking, schools, roads, green space infrastructure to accomodate. Heritage and environment impact studies need to be done before, NOT after approval. Do not allow this proposal.

I would like to object to the proposal to build a gigantic apartment complex in a quiet residential street in Lindfield. A 32m high building is comically oversized next to 2 story homes and will take away our sunlight and privacy. The balconies all around are too close to the neighbouring homes, and the multiple rooftop decks would be confronting to me.
I'm concerned about the creek flowing through the site. Any increase of water in that creek could cause flooding for other properties. Rainfall can no longer seep into the ground when the site is sealed up. I also worry about the habitat of the many water dragons and birds in the area.
If you must build, please consider reducing the excessive height and build fewer apartments.
Thank you for your consideration!

Objection to Residential Development with affordable housing 1-5 Nelson Road Lindfield (SSD-82899468)

Dear Sir/Madam:
I have reviewed public documents online regarding the 1-5 Nelson Road Lindfield development project (hereinafter referred to as the "Project"). These documents completely disregard basic facts and common sense in their assessments of the surrounding neighborhood and environment, visual impact, historic heritage conservation areas, heritage items, and municipal amenities. They are replete with misrepresentations and even distorted statements and conclusions. I strongly oppose this "Project" which under the guise of "in-fill affordable housing" pursues profit maximization, wantonly destroys the beautiful environment of Lindfield's existing historic conservation area, and severely impacts the basic right to sunlight for surrounding residents.

KInd Regards
SHAN

This project is within the heritage conversation area, and outside the original TOD. It exceeds 32m - the maximum permitted building height, and it is incompatible with the neighbourhood streetscape. The impact of high-density apartments, increased traffic flow, and parking requirements would severely affect the living standards of existing residents. Most importantly, we cannot risk damaging the existing tree canopy and mature trees in the area, as they are vital to our efforts for a greener and more sustainable environment.

This building is too high and will affect the lives of surrounding residents.
