Height and amount of dwellings in a small area will be major issues. A majority of unit style dwellings are only two stories three stories in this area so this is well above this from the plans. The height and amount of dwelling goes agains what is currently in the area. Parking is at a premium already. Traffic around this area is also a major concern due to the small streets and position opposite a popular beach. This will further create traffic congestion in this area. Parking is also major issue as these developments which never offer enough visitor parking for the size of this project which leads to little or no parking. There is little transport in the immediate area and it is far walk to a major transport hub. This project needs to be reduced to fit into the area and a large visitor carpark matching the amount of dwellings in this project.

The development is far too huge for the local area. It would cause absolute traffic chaos on a small street like Ocean street. It would change the feel and look of Narrabeen because the building proposal is way too high. No other building is taller than 3 stories. It would block natural sunlight from neighbouring houses. Ocean street and surrounding streets are not equipped for such a big development. This definitely cannot go ahead.

I object to the proposed development at 156 Ocean Street Narrabeen on the grounds of excessive size, scale and height, and the unacceptable impact on parking and local amenity.
The proposed building is grossly out of character with the surrounding residential area. It's bulk and height will dominate the streetscape, overshadow neighbouring properties, and set an undesirable precedent for overdevelopment in Narrabeen.
Our home on the adjacent block has no off-street parking, and we rely entirely on limited on-street spaces. The influx of vehicles associated with this project will further erode already scarce parking, forcing residents and visitors to compete for spaces and increasing congestion and safety risks (which have been identified as particularly acute on Ocean Street: see for example the 2024 safety study for Ocean Street which formed part of the Northern Beaches Council's "Safer Neighbourhoods Program").
Existing infrastructure, parking, and road networks cannot sustain further high-density development of this scale in the local area.
I urge the Department to refuse or significantly scale back the proposal to protect the character, amenity, and liveability of the area for current and future residents.

I strongly object to this project as it sets a precedence for over development. The Narrabeen peninsula is a rare part of the northern beaches that still has a character of smaller density residential area. If it goes over 2 or 3 stories development the whole area is too small to cope with such high density development. The traffic ans parking is already at capacity. There are other suitable areas to do larger density sites but along ocean st Narrabeen is NOt one of them . This area is unique and should be protected as heritage area to keep its unique surfing atmosphere and not a Dee why feel. Please do NOt allow this development.

The height and elevation is against the current aesthetic of that area of our suburb. It is overdevelopment that will lead to congestion and strain on local infrastructure.

I strongly object to the Indigo by Moran Seniors Living proposal as it stands. The 5–6 storey height is far too tall for our low-rise neighbourhood and will negatively impact traffic, parking, and the local character. I urge the Department to reduce the building height to no more than 2–3 storeys and lower the overall density to better fit

This project doesn’t belong in Narrabeen. It will never be a good fit for the area and will transform the Narrabeen peninsula for the worse.

I very strongly object to the Indigo by Moran Seniors Living proposal in its current form.
The planned 5–6 storey height is completely out of character with the surrounding low-rise residential area of Narrabeen. It will dominate the streetscape, block sunlight, and destroy the existing neighbourhood character. Nothing nearby approaches this height — it simply does not belong here.
Traffic and parking impacts will be severe (these are already ongoing issues). With 149 units and 192 parking spaces, Ocean and Lagoon Streets — and all surrounding streets — will face significant congestion, increased safety risks for pedestrians, and overflow parking.
This development represents overdevelopment: too tall, too dense, and too intrusive for this community. Seniors housing should integrate with the community, not overwhelm it.
I urge the Department to refuse the proposal as lodged and require a substantially reduced building height (no more than 2–3 storeys) and a lower overall density to better reflect the coastal village character of Narrabeen.
