Rushed &
incomplete planning

There’s too much being left later

✽

No school plan
The impact on local public schools hasn’t been assessed — even though hundreds of new residents are expected.
✽

Traffic unaddressed
Lords Road is already busy at school pickup. This scale of development will only make it worse.
✽

Unclear servicing
Basic infrastructure like water and stormwater hasn’t been confirmed. There’s no guarantee the site can cope.
✽

Key issues deferred
The proposal leaves major questions to be sorted out later during the DA — when the community has less say.
✽

No coordinated planning
There’s no clear strategy to manage increased pressure on transport, green space, or public services.
✽

Uncertain outcome
Once rezoning is approved, the development can change — height, layout, even land use could shift.

Some, yes — but this proposal leaves too many unresolved: school safety, traffic congestion, site servicing, and even open space planning. These should be clear before rezoning.
No plan has been provided to support the school or manage the disruption during construction. Traffic, noise, and safety impacts have been downplayed or deferred and are based on an outdated traffic study.
Parts of the site flood during heavy rain. The proposal relies on elevated platforms and “shelter-in-place” concepts, but there’s no formal sign-off from Sydney Water or emergency services.
Because that’s the minimum required — but it avoids showing the most impactful early morning shadows. Nearby homes are likely to lose valuable winter sun before 9am.
No. The Planning Department acknowledges that utility upgrades may be required, but no detailed servicing plan or infrastructure agreement is in place.
Likely. The traffic study is based on 2018 data and underplays peak-hour school activity. Key intersections nearby are already predicted to hit near-failure by 2036.
