Submissions on the CIP have come from residents, colleges, Council, Area Health, Department of Planning and Environment (DPE), the National Trust and the Heritage Office among others. The response document summarises the issues raised in submissions and provides the University’s response point by point – it is educational reading seeing what has been raised and how the University has responded.
CoxRichardson has also undertaken a review of the CIP resulting in a 7 per-cent reduction in floor space. The Grounds Conservation Management Plan and Landscape Plan have been adjusted. The new plans and shadow diagrams are also provided.
In response to the University not undertaking the consultations required by DPE with resident groups in preparation of the CIP, the groups were promised that the community would have a chance to view and comment on the University’s response to submissions before a determination was made.
The University’s response is on public exhibition until August 25 under SSD 13_6123 on the DPE Major Projects site under “Response to Submissions”.
Take this opportunity to comment.
