  • Micro Brewery at 466 Kangaroo Valley Rd the Above Mentioned DA Is
    Deputation to Council DA 20/1222 – Micro Brewery at 466 Kangaroo Valley Rd The above mentioned DA is scheduled for discussion and vote next Tuesday 2th March with a recommendation of approval. The community has only been notified of these latest developments in the last few days and we ask that in the interest of procedural fairness and transparency that the vote be deferred to enable appropriate community response to the new submissions. This DA should be rejected or at least the vote deferred based on the following justifications: Procedural Fairness 1. Residents who objected to the DA should have been notified as to the additional documents submitted in the period since our objections were lodged. Nothing has been received despite verbal enquiries in 2020. 2. COVID restrictions until very recently have prohibited residents from meeting to discuss the issue. 3. Progress on the DA application appears to have proceeded to the point of an approval recommendation by council staff without our knowledge until Friday 26th February with a vote scheduled 2 working days later. Some people on the list have not received any notice at all. 4. A crucial Supplementary Traffic Statement with projections of traffic and accidents that persuaded staff to recommend approval was not made available to residents. 5. NSW Police responded twice to referrals predicting an increase in serious motor vehicle collisions. 6. The process has not been open, transparent and fair to the community. 7. Further, a brief review of documents now obtained indicates a recommendation that traffic be diverted along Tourist Road. This impacts the residents of Tourist Road who again have not been notified and are unable to respond to this development.
