Some Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest residents may be unaware of a new Development Application Opinion by News Of The Area - Modern Media - May 9, 2019 Dear News Of The Area IT is of considerable concern to many residents that no notification of the following proposal has been fully circulated, with the addition to the community of over 1254 traffic movements, estimated by a traffic consultant, will have a significant effect on transport in the area, as well as recreational pursuits and wildlife movements.

Or media@newsofthearea.com.au Or CLICK FOR ADVERT QUOTE Some Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest residents may be unaware of a new Development Application (-100/2019) that doubles the proposed number of house lots in Precinct One from 76 lots to 153 lots. Other houses are on the drawing board for a staged progress of construction. Lodged with Midcoast Council from Tattersall Lander Pty. Ltd, a 226 LOT Subdivision and 3 Reserves are proposed, to be created as a staged construction on part of the Durness property in Viney Creek Road Tea Gardens. This DA supersedes the one approved by Great Lakes Council in 2014. The community has a right to be informed about this new application as it has implications both for lifestyle and environment The provision of so many more residential lots in the new development DA has been designed to overcome establishment costs for sewerage and water links required for the area, we are informed by the developer. It is shocking to realise that although all members of the community are invited to make written submissions to Council in relation to this Development Application unfortunately the closing date for submissions was Tuesday the 7 May.
