To whom it may concern,

Thank you for the opportunity of submitting my concerns with the proposed multi
residential unit development on the corners of Lagoon, Octavia and Waterloo Streets
Narrabeen .SSD-76220734

I am the owner of the following properties:-
Unit 7/ 53 -53 Lagoon Street Narrabeen, Unit 4/ 53 -53 Lagoon Street Narrabeen and
Unit 6/11-21 Waterloo Street Narrabeen.

I invested in these properties in the 1990's and early 2000's on the understanding that local Development Control plan restricted any future development to a maximum of
two stories.
My experience is that Warringah and Northern Beaches councils have been
steadfast in maintaining the 8.5 m height limit in these residential zonings, and to
relax this requirement now will be highly detrimental to the peninsula.

Understand that I cannot object to the development in regard to loss of privacy, views,
sunlight etc... I am still very concerned with the increased traffic that will be generated.

I have personally witnessed a motor vehicle accident outside St Joseph's Catholic
and primary school in Lagoon Street in 2005 and am constantly warning friends and
family to be highly aware of speeding vehicles on the intersection of Waterloo and Ocean Street
whilst on foot to the beach.

The traffic report provided does indicate an accident history but only for the past 5 years
and only between Octavia and Tourmaline Streets.

As local residents, we can assure the report writers that there are many near misses
and unrecorded incidents always.

This is a sneaky way by Moran to make a huge profit at the cost of the local environment suffering of unwelcome bulky structure in a harmonious suburb.

This development is totally out of proportion with its surrounds and must be modified.
The proposed height of the building is well above any in the suburb and would cause massive impact to the adjoining and surrounding residential properties. The shadowing and visual impacts for the residents along Loftus Street, and the (poor) remaining residence on the corner of Lagoon and Octavia Streets is completely unacceptable. The developer is clearly not from this area and is totally unsympathetic to the impact of the building on existing local residences.
The peninsula where the building and its basement levels are being proposed is already subject to coastal erosion and groundwater influences. Groundwater displacement and potential impacts on surrounds must be considered.
Traffic and parking is already a big issue in the area and the additional of 149 units will exacerbate the issue.
The development description is misleading - having a 10-room aged care facility is going to be a worse outcome for our aging community than what was there under Wesley Mission. The price of the units will exclude the vast majority of seniors in our community from purchasing.
The construction related impacts (noise, dust, heavy vehicles) will be totally unacceptable to existing residents.
We totally OBJECT to the development as it is currently proposed. Indigo by Moran should be required to modify the development to (at least) reduce the number of levels to a maximum of 3. In addition, the company should be required to offer the poor remaining resident on the corner of Octavia and Lagoon Streets a decent purchase price / compensation for inflecting such stress on their lives.

As a local resident of North Narrabeen I strongly object to the proposal to replace the existing two-storey, 126 x aged care bed facility at Taylor Village, Ocean Street with only 10 x aged care beds and 149 independent living units, this is a 92% reduction in aged care beds! This is removing essential amenity for our aging population.
Scale - the significant increase in height and floor space occupation of the land will be detrimental to all Narrabeen residents and locals who utilise Narrabeen beach for recreation. Parking is very limited as is and the proposal does not allow adequate parking for the proposed residents. The traffic issues experienced in the Dee Why bottle neck will now be exacerbated in Narrabeen with this overdevelopment.
Being in a significant flood zone the underground parking poses serious concerns for neighbours as it will create stormwater issues and will be a flood risk.
The increased density on existing infrastructure, removal of green space including mature native pine trees, and the character of the neighbourhood setting a terrible precedent for developers to line their pockets in future.
Please consider the community and reject this proposal as it is a blatant exploitation of the planning provisions!
