These festivals are crazy!!! THE LAND FLOODS, WHICH IS WHY THEY DIDN'T BUILD HIGHWAYS ON IT. Please look carefully at the photos I've attached. They were taken about a month ago. If it floods when there's a festival, there will be hundreds of deaths, and YOU (the planning dept) will be responsible. There's no way the site can be evacuated because all the surrounding roads go under water and the electricity goes off. It's a disaster waiting to happen. The drainage can't be improved because all the surrounding drains are tidal, ie, they're at sea level.
The festivals should never be in this area. These are festivals of alcohol consumption, nothing else, and they belong in Botany Bay or Revesby. They are commercial/industrial development stuck in the middle of rural and residential areas. On a planning level, it's INSANITY. The noise, the traffic, the filth, garbage, the police problems, all belong in an industrial area.
The festivals have also had a very negative effect on the local entertainment industry. It's become much harder for pubs and clubs to make a quid, and musicians have much less work than previously. The pay has also been reduced, and some musicians are now working for $80 per night, as they did in 1985.
These festivals should never have been approved in the first place so an extension is not warranted.
