I am an owner of unit 9 300C Burns Bay Road and I object to the development of 300 in its current proposal for the following reasons.

1. It significantly exceeds the height restrictions of Lane Cove. It is beyond double the allowance for the suburb and is not in keeping with the local area.

2. Significant concerns with shadowing caused by the building. It is proposed to be 15 stories on a hill, likely 19 stories above my building at 300C. The proposed height would prevent direct sunlight into most of my strata complex (300A-C). This would have a direct impact on quality life and will also significantly impact the environment of the surrounding area.

3. It does not match the suburb and this location. This area backs into a bush area as well as marine area, both of which have been heavily invested in by council and government to maintain. The overdevelopment of this building would have a significant environmental impact, with shifts in sun exposure, potential pollution and increase in waste from the demolition, as well as significant increase in noise that would impact the local fauna.

4. The overdevelopment would increase congestion on already busy roads. This sections of burns bay road has minimal access, with traffic congestion occurring already at peak times. There is no proposed development for roads to accommodate the significant increase of people living and driving in the area. Although there is bus access on main part of burns bay road, this is not enough to accommodate as the buses are not frequent, and bus route 252 was already reduced to no longer go to city following development of metro

5. There is concern about lack of parking being offered in the building for residents and visitors. In our strata we have visitor parking that is already overcrowded and is often used by neighbouring buildings against council regulation. This overdevelopment would further see that these visitor parks in a public and easily accessible area are further taken. In addition, the parking area is time monitored by council but is owned by strata development, which means increased use by residents of this proposed overdevelopment would further wear down the roads that our strata would have to pay to fix. There is likely no proposed compensation from this overdevelopment for this and would cause myself and other owners to experience financial burden as well as not have adequate parking for our visitors.

Overall, I object to this overdevelopment and request that a new proposal is put forth that keeps to council height requirements, focuses on the environment and surrounding areas first, proposes adequate owner and visitor parking, and is in line with the character and charm of the area.

This development will seriously affect not only the residents of nearby homes but also the wider community due to:
- Its scale and density associated with excessive height;
- Its detrimental impacts ie loss of privacy and overshadowing to adjoining buildings and park areas;
- Its increased congestion ie traffic, inadequate infrastructure and parking, and
- Its character and incompatibility with surrounding local streetscape.
During peak hours the streets commencing at Epping Road and continuing down Burns Bay Road and Centennial Avenue all the way past the proposed development site is already bumper to bumper as it is the only arterial road leading across the river to Hunters Hill and surrounding suburbs. Where are all the extra vehicles going to be accommodated?

We are writing as residents of Lane Cove to formally object to the State Significant
Development application SSD-87925706 for the demolition of existing structures and
construction of residential flat buildings at 300 Burns Bay Road, Lane Cove. We reside at
290 Burns Bay Road and are unfortunately directly affected by this proposal. As reasonable
and conscientious residents of a busy and growing suburb, we understand the requirements
for affordable and sustainable housing developments that are in line with existing planning
controls. However, having reviewed the application documents, we are deeply concerned
that this proposal represents a profound and irreversible overdevelopment of this site. It is
fundamentally incompatible with the established character of the neighbourhood, the
capacity of local infrastructure, and the reasonable expectations of long-term residents. Our
full objection is set out in the attached letter.

I am writing to object to the proposed development at 300 Burns Bay Road, Lane Cove.

The scale of this proposal is a major concern. A development of up to 15 storeys is significantly out of step with the surrounding area and existing planning controls. It would dominate the streetscape and set a precedent for overdevelopment.

The number of new dwellings (220+) is also excessive for this location. The area is already busy, and this level of density would put additional pressure on local infrastructure and services without clear evidence of how this will be managed.

Traffic is another key issue. Burns Bay Road and nearby streets are already congested, and adding this many residents and vehicles will only make it worse. The proposal does not appear to include meaningful upgrades to address this.

There will also be a direct impact on neighbouring residents. The height and bulk of the building will result in loss of views, overshadowing, reduced privacy, and increased noise, which will significantly affect day-to-day living conditions.

Overall, the proposal is too large for the site and would have a negative impact on the surrounding area. I ask that it be reconsidered.

I believe the project in its current form is:
- At 15 storeys high, it is very over height for the area. The exisiting apartment buildings nearby are substantially lower & do not encroach upon each other. The current proposal is far too high & will encroach upon all the neighbouring residents.
- With 220+ apartments proposed, it is too big for the site, & too big in comparison with its neighbours. It is over sized for this site.
- There is only one road to access the site, Waterview St, & it is a small, tight intersection, controlled by traffic lights. The number of residents will add too many vehicles to this awkward intersection & access road.
- There are only a handful of visitor parking spaces available in / nearby the site. It is virtually impossible for the number of visitors to park anywhere nearby.

The area is too congested already for such a big building. The rieveris already so poluted

I rejected the project because of the environmental impact; the loss of privacy; the great movement of land and insects, and an increase in vehicles, which will significantly affect the quality of life.
