What the earlier post below (Lord Mayor on UNSW and potential delays for COFA development) means –
COFA and UNSW want to ignore the Council's March 2010 compromise traffic plan and have asked the NSW Department of Planning to do, what will effectively, reverse the Statement of Commitments that underpinned the 2008 Development Approval.
Put simply, COFA and UNSW want their trucks using residential streets for the complete 27 months – Josephson Street, Selwyn Street, Albion Avenue and Napier Streets. This is all three residential sides of the campus!!
What can you do? Voice your opposition!!
We've made it simple.
Copy between the dotted lines (below), then click HERE to email all the NSW State people, and paste your objection.
------------------------------------------------------
I strongly object to:
1. The removal of the City Council’s approval powers
2. The use of residential streets for truck access for the full 27 months
And would like to point out:
3. The delays in starting are completely under COFA/UNSW’s control
4. That COFA/UNSW shown a lack of transparency in community consultations and are misrepresenting the facts.
5. The Council brokered compromise from March 2010 was deemed reasonable by the community, even though it had significant impact on Napier St residents and allowed truck access for light strip-out
------------------------------------------------------
Do it as quickly as possible as the decision is due very soon (perhaps even tomorrow!).
What else can you do? Get everyone in the house to send a separate email so that the NSW Government people are inundated.
