Harold Park – Precinct 6 DA modification
Posted on September 8, 2014	by flagadmin
Find below the reply from the Lord Mayor which disputes our (well founded) claims that the Precinct 6 DA modification notification letter was not received by the community in April-May 2014. We do not appreciate the tone of the letter which asserts that the letter drop did take place – a survey of our group clearly indicated that no-one within 75 metres of the site received the letter. You can download the letter and associated suburb plan here:
R OLM2014 007548 FLAG Harold Park
Attachment – Property Selection Report for notification of DA D2014341
Notwithstanding, we are providing a link to some of the DA documents for your review. If you live close to the site and didn’t receive the notification letter we urge you to send a submission which will allow Council to check their ‘notification records’. Send an email to: dasubmissions@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au and please urge your neighbours to do the same.
As stated in the Lord Mayor’s letter, submissions are still being received. The proposed Precinct 6 building includes a 4 storey building on the corner of Wigram Road and Minogue Crescent which is greater than the 3 storeys approved in the Harold Park Development Control Plan. Refer to the Height of Buildings plan at this link:

We object to the incremental increase in building heights on the corner of Wigram Road and Minogue Crescent, and the manner in which community consultation has taken place around this issue.

Harold Park suburb naming – reply from Council
Posted on July 1, 2014	by flagadmin
We have received feedback from Council which partially answers our queries below. You can download the letter here:
OLM2014 006336-03 R OLM2014 006336 FLAG Harold Park.
We asked Council:
1) For what reasons does Mirvac want the development site to be known as Harold Park? What has Mirvac put forward as their case to Council?
2) What decisions does Council make based on suburb boundaries – e.g. parking restrictions, open space, service delivery etc?
3) What are the ramifications in terms of land valuations, inclusions in data collected for supply of infrastructure by local and state governments, based on council area names? Services including care services are based on boundary areas such as Kings Cross etc. What are the benefits to Mirvac and its development residents to being excised from Forest Lodge? What will be the new suburb’s socioeconomic demographic compared to Forest Lodge?
4) What other ramifications are there for detrimental effects on surrounding suburbs, in terms of impacts on transport data collections for transport, school and hospital size, and flood planning?
5) If there is to be a name change why wouldn’t Council seize the opportunity to defer to their Aboriginal Consultant and local Land Council for a name, rather than perpetuate the ignorance of previous generations in providing greater recognition to horses rather than the first Australians.
How do you feel about the proposal to name the development site ‘Harold Park’? Is the developer (once again) the only one to gain from such a proposal? Post your comments below:

Harold Park Tramsheds DA protest – 6 April 2014
Posted on April 6, 2014	by flagadmin
There was a great turnout today for the Tramsheds rally which was held with only 24 hours notice and during steady rain. It was great to see so many residents show they care about this precious parkland and express their concerns about the retail traffic which will be generated across the Chapman Road bridge and the conflicts this will create for pedestrians, cyclists, children and pets.
The large supermarket proposed for the Tramsheds will attract shoppers from other suburbs. Consequently, it does not comply with the follow objectives of the Harold Park Development Control Plan:
(g) That the built form, layout and street network encourages and promotes the use of public transport.”
FLAG residents are strongly urged to attend the crucial Council meeting tomorrow night (Monday, 7 April 2014) to express their concern for the proposed over development of the historic Tramsheds building which will ruin the surrounding parkland area. The Council meeting will be held at the Council Chambers in the Sydney Town Hall from 5pm.
A video of the rally is located here:
