I am writing to express my support for this proposal. A four-storey mixed-use development is highly appropriate for McKinnon Road, serving as a logical transition that increases housing diversity while retaining commercial activity on the ground floor.
The inclusion of ground-floor commercial space is particularly positive, as it ensures the site activates the street frontage and contributes to local amenity and walkability.
Regarding the reduction in car parking requirements, I believe this is a sensible approach given the site’s close proximity to McKinnon Station. Encouraging lower car dependency in well-connected areas is essential for sustainable urban planning. This development appears to strike the right balance between density, commercial utility, and transport accessibility.
