Since 1981, every time Ku-ring-gai Council has a need for money, it tries to rezone and sell the Culworth Avenue Carpark at Killara Station. Five times, since 1981, the voice of the local residents has defeated the proposition. Now Council seeks to reclassify the land, such that it will be sold to developers who will replace a vital community facility with another five storey apartment block with more traffic on our already congested and inadequate local streets. We residents need once more to send a clear message to those elected to represent us that our wish is to retain that land for the benefit of the community for ever. By signing up to this petition, and attending the public meeting at the Council Chambers on October 24 at 5:00 pm, you can send a clear message to the council that we want this land kept for our benefit and not reclassified and sold

The current (elected) Councillors of Ku-Ring-Gai Council DO NOT have a mandate to sell foo the Culworth Avenue Killara Car park in order to pay for fancy accommodation for staff and councillors. They must not be allowed to get away with this RAID on a community asset

No more oversized apartments on our small streets please. We choose to live in Kuringai because it is quiet and green. You are robbing us of this.

Ku- ring- gai streets, especially in Killara are already parked out due to narrow designs and high density buildings with out enough parking for residents, loosing this car park will clog already parked out streets such as Lorne Avenue.

Please don't desecrate the North shore with more development especially unit buildings.

I strongly support the petition to retain Culworth Avenue Carpark at Killara Station. Parking is already inadequate.

Every morning is a nightmare trying to find a spot near the station. If they sell this land we will have nowhere left to go. Leave it alone!

I support this petition to retain parking at Killara. It is already impossible to find parking around stations on the North Shore - due to lack of adequate transport such as transit buses to the station. In our area, these buses depart on the hour - which makes it impossible when you are working. Also, there are inadequate or no buses in the evening. Unless Council are prepared to put on buses to stop people from taking cars and reduce emissions - then don't rezone car parks! I thought Council's role is to plan urban development for its ratepayers not for pure greed. Obviously the Councillors and staff do not have to struggle to find transport options to get them to work - they fail to understand that most work is Sydney city centric. They have a car park ... we, the ratepayers have to struggle. Disappointing!!!!!!!!!
