79 Railway Lane Wickham NSW 2293

I provided written feedback regarding this development (by email). I have not recieved a response and was not advised the development had begun. I had expected to be advised the demolishment had begun and if any of my concerns had been considered or addressed.

Hi Janet
On 13 Jun 2024, DA2024/00412 was lodged with CN for the demolition of the existing structures. This DA is separate from the DA above. Presumably this was lodged separately so the developer can clear the site while waiting for approval of the modified plans submitted on 18 Jul 2024. (Or maybe to reduce anti-social activities on the unoccupied site?)
On the CN application tracker for DA2024/00412, the DA assessor has determined that neighbour notification letters were not required for this site clearance. It also says: "Stage/Decision - Withdrawn". Confusingly, it also says: "Date Determined - 26/06/2024"; but there is no approval notification published. So it is unclear to me if the demolition has been approved. If you get a response from CN about why the demolition has started, please post it here.
The above MA2024/00235 has not been determined. On 6 Dec 2024, CN issued a 'Request for Further Information'. The request raises 3 planning issues, 2 environmental issues and 2 engineering issues. It also raises submission issues saying: "No details have been provided in response to the request to address submissions"; i.e., to address your concerns. See the CN application tracker for the 4 page 'Request for Further Information'. It is an interesting read and it looks like construction will not be commencing any time soon.
