SIRA Notices

• Please read the Traffic and Parking Implications Report, provided with the DA, it provides ample ammunition to discredit the application: It is beyond comprehension how 138 restaurant seats + 14 motel rooms + 3 retail spaces + space needed for staff, translate into the provision of 9 parking spaces.

• The report bases its numbers on: “anticipated strong patronage from locals and offshore residents”, that restaurant will be only 30 – 85 % full. We all know when it counts most for us (evenings and weekends) when patronage will be high and then, how about patronage for wedding parties as well?

• The report claims: “The proportion of restaurant/café patrons driving a car to/from the 'Pasadena' is likely to be similar to the proportion who travel by car to/from restaurants and/or pubs in the inner city suburbs of Sydney.” This argument is false and should be strongly countered. Church Point is isolated by a lack of transport and parking options while existing infrastructure is inadequate for local families struggling to park, to get children to and from school.

• The report concludes that the Pasadena development will not have unacceptable parking implications and cites the addition of the 120 spaces for the new car park as one of the reasons: The new car park only provides 45 to 50 publicly available spaces after 50 to 60 are used for private lease and 10-15 current spaces are lost due to construction. There is also the potential loss of many parking spots in the local Church Point streets. We are paying for this car park which was sold to us as a way to increase the amount of available car parking for offshore residents.

EMERGENCY WATER BOOKING CHANGES

EMERGENCY WATER GUIDELINES

• Connecting to standpipe with a complying fitting to receive water
• Water lost for any reason during booking period - check your flow regularly!
• Disconnecting your non-permanent fitting from standpipe immediately after use
• Resetting all valves when you are finished to make Line ready for next booking
• Contacting next person to arrange handover

• Turning off Main Line valve at Bell if no contact is made and taking reading
• Note:  The washer in the “nut and tail” that connects to the standpipe prevents leakage. Without it, the fitting can be over-tightened making it difficult to remove from the brass nipple.  If you have lost yours contact Cass Gye who has spares in stock as well as plugs to keep the washer in place after use.
