I have submitted a formal objection letter to the planning department detailing our concerns regarding the height and density of the proposed development. A local council representative has responded to confirm they have received our collective submission. My next step involves preparing evidence for the upcoming planning committee session.

This building is way too tall for the area. It will completely ruin the view from the park and block all our light.

we need to keep the employment space there not trade it for some ugly overpriced flats that nobody asked for.

Ridiculous density. Who approved this design?? Does not fit in with the neighborhood at all.

Bad for the local area and bad for privacy. Stop the build.

TOTAL OVERSHADOWING. Local infrastructure is already breaking under the pressure and this will just make things 10x worse.

The scale is just completely wrong. Why do they think they need to cram so much into that spot.
