OBJECTION 3868/2017/DA-CW/A

Mount Gilead has been identified as a critical koala crossing by the NSW Chief Scientist and as such no more trees should be removed and the koala protected not fragmented
De watering the dam will lead to flooding in Noorumba Reserve which should not be permitted
The proponent is damaging the ecosystem of south west Sydney with the major vegetation and tree removal, de watering, site remediation and bulk earthworks. The area is suffering from urban heat and flooding extremes and the council must take these health issues seriously
