As a resident of Danks Street, Waterloo I object to this development application for the following reasons:
- the proposed height of key buildings in this development are significantly higher than the buildings in the surrounding streets, particularly the residencies along Danks Street between Young St and Bourke St. As the EIS & Rezoning Statement details (page 33 and 34), the existing surrounding buildings are between 4-6 storeys, with one under current development for 8 storeys. The proposed development now includes buildings which have planned storeys of 18, 15, 36 and 13. These are all dramatically higher buildings'/storeys than any recent or current developments in this immediate area. A development that caps at 6-8 storeys maximum would both contribute to the housing supply without negatively impacting the surrounding streets and neighbourhood due to the height and scale of the buildings. The now proposed 800+ apartments and 500+ car spaces is a significant increase in population density and vehicle traffic in an already densely populated and congested area.
- We appreciate the focus on additional housing in NSW, and note that Waterloo and Zetland are already one of Sydney's highest-density precincts. Simply there are only so many people you can pack into one suburb before it becomes congested, polluted and non functional.
- This development proposal keeps changing in scope and scale, requesting significant increases in building heights to include more apartments while at the same time requesting to removing or reducing the community infrastructure floor space.

I have been a resident of waterloo for 20 years. I picked this location as it was not planned for high multi storey development and feel now I have been betrayed my council who are not aligning to the surrounding developments. The area is already over developed and it is impossible to immagine what it will be like with the sort of increased volume that is being proposed. In. addition the increase to the size would mean that most of our natural light will be removed. The increased volume of traffic for essential services such as deliveries and garbage collection would also make the noise levels unacceptable for enjoyment of our family at night and whilst sleeping it is already degenerated considerably. Danks Street simply cannot cope with the volume as it has already seen significant increase and continues to be used as a commercial delivery route for quite a number of commercial outlets along the road making entry to it and crossing it quite dangerous

A Direct negative impact to solar access to unit in Cameo and Aria, specifically close to the Winter Solstice (21st of June each year) that is not considered
• There does not appear to be any analysis / assessment of the solar access impact on Aria and Cameo on the Solar access report (E3 Architectural Design Report A2 Solar Access) - why is this not completed?
• The current infrastructure (think 304 buses) does not allow for further population density in an area that is already one of the highest densities in Australia. Albeit the Metro has opened up, however that is closer to Redfern than the population hub here in Waterloo.
• Increased Wind Tunnels
• A 36-storey building is out of character with the current building heights and will detract from the existing building elevation / skyline – I personally think the design is quite ugly and detracts significantly from the current and proposed building form.
