COMMENTARY ON AMENDED PROPOSAL

FOR PHASES 2 AND 3
15.7.20

Neil Willetts
113 Bent St, Lindfield

I have no further comments on the relatively minor changes in the amended proposal; comments I made in my submissions of 30.6.17 and 30.11.19 remain pertinent.

My major concern remains in the traffic disaster that awaits both nearby residents and school users, if and when the number of pupils are increased to the proposed numbers of 1000 or 2000 students in Phases 2 and 3 with commensurate increases in staff and ancillary personnel. My concerns and the reasons for these are comprehensively stated in my previous two submissions

I do not support the establishment of the Lindfield Learning Village on the ex-UTS site and I believe that the site could be better and more safely used for other purposes.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

I declare that I have made no reportable political donations in the previous two years.

DPI Fisheries has review the MOD 2 Modification Report for the Eden Breakwater Wharf Extension and has no objections or comments to make on this modification

Please see attached letter

Crown Lands supports the modified use of the Eden Cruise Facility providing the following is taken into consideration:
Ports Authority NSW (PANSW) is named operator in the Operational Environmental Management Plan (OEMP) and is responsible for complying with the conditions of the approval, therefore modification to the conditions of approval should come from PANSW, not from Crown Lands, as the asset owner.
Refueling from a tanker is an issue that will need to be addressed and, if permitted, will need to be included as part of the OEMP.
The berthing of other vessels 24/7 along the Cruise Wharf will need to be seasonally limited to the non-cruise season.
Berthing should be limited to the site of the extension structure which has fenders in place. There are no current fenders between the breakwater and the structure.
