PETITION
The Clerk: The following petition has been lodged for presentation:
By Mr Cornwell, from 136 residents, requesting that the Assembly amend planning legislation, including the Territory Plan, to take special consideration of areas of particular and significant character to all of Canberra where multidensity developments are or may be proposed, such as is likely to happen in Hunter Street, Yarralumla, especially where the majority of neighbourhood residents object to such developments.
The terms of this petition will be recorded in Hansard and a copy referred to the appropriate Minister.
Planning Legislation
The petition read as follows:
To the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory:
The petition of certain residents of the ACT draws to the attention of the Assembly the fact that plans have been lodged with the ACT Planning Authority for variation to lease purpose and approval for the development of 6 multi-density dwellings on Block 6 Section 25 Yarralumla (No. 11 Hunter Street) where a single residence currently exists.
Your petitioners therefore request the Assembly to amend planning legislation, including the Territory Plan, to take special consideration of areas of particular and significant character to all of Canberra where multi-density developments are or may be proposed, such as is likely to happen in Hunter Street, Yarralumla, especially where the majority of neighbourhood residents object to such developments.
