Council is proposing apartment buildings of up to 8–10 storeys on three sites bordering Taylor Street. A personal letter from you is the most effective way to be heard, and it takes about ten minutes.
How to send it ↓On your phone? You can edit the template in the Word app, or email this page to yourself and finish it on your computer.
From your neighbours Kaushik (#49) and Rich (#61) Taylor Street.
Identical form letters are often grouped and counted as one. A few sentences in your own words make yours a separate submission.
Council's survey limits site-specific comments to 1,500 characters and doesn't take attachments. A letter sent by email can carry the whole case.
Fill in the yellow highlights: your name, your address, and a sentence or two about how this affects you.

Yes. Each person can send their own letter. Change the name and at least one sentence so each one is distinct.
Council may publish submissions or summaries of them. Check the privacy note on Council's exhibition page. You can ask for your personal details to be withheld.
Yes, if you can. A letter can include detail the survey can't.
Council reviews the submissions and reports back before the plan goes to the NSW Government. We'll update this page if there's another chance to have a say.
