135m in an already overcrowded and over populated area with minimal infrastructure and schooling locally. The local roads and public transport can’t handle what’s already here. It will struggle with the already approved 30m structure. Going larger does not solve anything, it doesn’t bring prices down, it doesn’t improve the community its greed.

Already too much traffic and narrow road.

This is not the only high rise building in edmondson park area, there will be more to come and imagine every developer would request to alter their original submission and increase the floorplan 10x , buchan ave is already congested as it is and edmondson park is not a CBD

There is an ongoing and significant imbalance in the area, with continued emphasis on residential development without the necessary expansion in supporting infrastructure.
The current trajectory is not sustainable. The only existing retail - Ed Square, that only has one Coles, are already under pressure and cannot reasonably support the scale of population growth being projected.
More critically, the lack of essential infrastructure is becoming increasingly apparent. Continued population growth without adequate investment in healthcare, retail, and community services will only compound existing strain on the area. There is a clear and pressing need for developments that prioritise these fundamentals — including serious consideration for major health infrastructure such as a hospital.
We would strongly encourage a more balanced and forward-looking approach to future proposals, one that reflects the needs of a growing community rather than adding further pressure to already stretched resources.

Hi,
I object to this project's gross expansion of residential density. The development application provides insufficient assessment of its impacts and where detail has been provided, it proves to provide a negative outcome for the local community (open spaces, traffic impacts, visibility).
Due to the significance of the issues below and a number of documents that have outright errors, it is recommended that this exhibition is resubmitted and the community given the full time allotment to conduct an appropriate review of the new and updated material; unless of course we simply reject development and maintain the existing MOD 5 approvals.
Please see the list of comments against this submission.


The document Appendix H - Engagement Report identifies that this single development will introduce a demand on the local primary schools of 0.8 and comments that "new" schools exist, however, this does not take into account the current capacity of those new schools and identifies a lack of knowledge of the local area where these schools are built after the demand has already existed. These schools were developed based on existing planning and this development introduces more than double the residential capacity of the previously proposed area; noting that this area provides the most dense residential proposal for the south west. This point was raised from the community and is listed in Appendix C - Community Engagement Table, however the references provided only highlight this problem is not resolved.

The document Appendix GG - Social Impact Assessment identifies an open space shortfall after accounting for the project's 5 ha demand, therefore relying on 'communal space for residents' (only 1.18ha) to compensate. This is further worsened that this space is private, denying other locals access. This provides no benefit or maintaining status quo for the existing community.

The document Appendix GG - Social Impact Assessment is naive in relying on the unconfirmed Voluntary Planning Agreement. As of 9 April 2026, Liverpool Council does not appear to list this VPA on their website and it cannot be confirmed that this VPA provides any offset of the impacts of this development. https://www.liverpool.nsw.gov.au/development/liverpools-planning-controls/planning-agreements

The document Appendix GG - Social Impact Assessment ignores local character and does not consider council planning reports. The Liverpool LEP Review Scoping Report (TRIM 290184.2024 / 290186.2024) proposes rezoning select Edmondson Park land from R3 Medium Density to R4 High Density, but only to enable an additional ~50 dwellings total acorss targeted site. This signals a modest increase aligned with suburban character preservation.
This social impact assessment proposal of 1,805 high-rise apartments (3,489 residents) explodes beyond LEP intent with the dwelling uplift (1,200+ extra vs. Landcom's prior 605).

The document Appendix GG - Social Impact Assessment provides a review of the crime rates in the local area and the existing levels and locations impacted on the development, however this does not consider any increased crime rates as a result of the introduction of such a severe increase in population localised at a single point. This does not consider any impact on the community and only looks inward.

The document Appendix GG - Social Impact Assessment fails to consider any impacts on emergency services despite listing NSW Fire & Rescue NSW and NSW Police as consulted stakeholders on page 29; no feedback from them appears in Table 16 (pages 30-31) or the impact analysis in Chapter 5, which only addresses general crime via BOCSAR data without reference to high-rise fire access, evacuation, or ambulance response amid school proximity and traffic. This omission ignores risks from these towers (up to 135m) on Buchan Avenue, where existing congestion (see stakeholder feedback, page 30) would delay FRNSW/ambulance amid hotspots within 400m (Figure 10, page 19). While appendix LL - Infrastructure DD identifies impacted utilities, it does not consider emergency services.

The document Appendix M2 - Visual Impact Assessment is of poor quality as it contains errors Viewpoint 18 is in the location of Viewpoint 19 as per the map on Page 2.
The document Appendix M2 - Visual Impact Assessment is of poor quality as it contains errors Viewpoint 19 is in the location of Viewpoint 18 as per the map on Page 2.
The document Appendix M2 - Visual Impact Assessment is of poor quality as it contains errors Viewpoint 20 is in the location of Viewpoint 21 as per the map on Page 2.
There remains further errors with the viewpoints and the alignment to the map on Page 2, however I gave up doing your job for you and request that you provide quality documents that are appropriate for the nature of the development and impact on the community.

The document Appendix M2 - Visual Impact Assessment is misleading as the angle of the image on page 39, Viewpoint 19 (18 as per the map), is positioned in such a way that the largest towers are not depicted and attempts to hide from the reader what the actual impact of the largest towers would be. It is unclear why the current angle was chosen in such a way to avoid showing the impact of site 5.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment presents and avoidable risk of heavy vehicle movement collisions with school children as it does not consider ceasing construction traffic between the school-zone hours applicable for the schools on the adjacent site. It is unclear why the construction transport assessment has not considered this.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment identifies that is 'expects' construction traffic to park within the bounds of the site, however, there is no commitment to enforcement or consideration that the parking allotted to the construction traffic are conveniently located to the appropriate worksites.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment does not consider any mitigative actions to reduce debris carried onto the roads from the site or cleaning of local roads as a result of the construction vehicles.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment does not consider the appropriateness of the roads with respect to the massively increased number of heavy vehicles using the roadways and their wear and tear.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment does not consider any dedicated areas for emergency vehicles. Given the massive number of residents at the location, it is unclear where a safe and reliably available location would be provided for each site for FRNSW/Ambulance vehicles.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment in section 5.4 identifies a shortfall of car spaces, nearing half of the maximum capacity. The report only considers the closeness of the train station for accessibility and does not consider the local area and the reliance on cars to get to places such as sporting fields and other amenities. There is no sensitivity analysis of the accuracy of the lower parking rate under the Housing SEPP; the developer considers this reference as the only relevant metric.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment in section 6.2.3.2 considers a model of 2 right-hand turn lanes from Campbelltown Road onto Bernera Road (Soldier's Parade) and further identifies in section 6.4 infrastructure staging considerations under the section "Lane reallocation for Campbelltown Road | Soldiers Parade." This discusses an additional lane allocation for this intersection and identifies the benefits that would be achieved with the additional lane on the assessment in section 6.2.3.2. However, the author should look at the image provided and note that this intersection is Campbelltown Road and Macdonald Road. This is not the intersection that the author thinks and Soldiers Parade/Campbelltown Road intersection does not have the future provision of an additional turning lane as noted. It is unclear why any benefit to the traffic at Soldiers Parade/Campbelltown Road is being considered due to this error.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment in Figure 6-4 identifies the continuation of Macdonald Road to meet with Soldiers Parade, passing through Bernera Road, however, it is unclear how this modelling can be used to justify traffic flows as there is no assurance that this road is completed by the time this development is completed. The extension of Croatia Avenue depicted as continuing through Soldiers Parade toward the development site is also a road that does not provide any indication of being completed in the near future. It is recommended that an interim traffic analysis is undertaken to consider the road impacts of this development to potential 10+ years that follow before these roads are completed.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment claims an improvement in Table 6-4 for Buchan Avenue/Horrie Road from MOD 5 to this development, however, does not acknowledge that the modification to this intersection has already been completed as part of the high school development and this falsifies the true impact this development has on the existing roadway.

The document Appendix O - Transport Impact Assessment is incomplete as it does not consider the intersection of Buchan Road and Braithwaite Road, which experiences some of the heaviest traffic within the area at peak times. There is no assessment as to the worsening state that thousands of additional residents would apply to this intersection. It is further noted that the queue for this intersection commonly blocks access for traffic heading east on Buchan Avenue to Soldiers Parade to head north. This report does not appear to have assessed the local area to find where the congestion occurs and rather considered only a desktop review of an incomplete plan presented many years ago.
