The Friends of Erskineville are a local community action group committed to protecting and enhancing the unique environment of Erskineville Village South Sydney. This online petition, to be presented to The Council of the city of Sydney, seeks to block a second attempt to develop a supermarket at 21 Erskineville Road Newtown NSW 2043 (“The Hive”, Erskineville). For full details please visit our campaign web site at ww.erskinevillevillage.org
A hard copy version of this petition is also available for signing at various local businesses in the Village.
(Please note that this is a new petition site, the previous online arrangement has been causing us difficulties and has been replace with GoPetition.com.au - hence the zero signature count as at May 10).
We, the undersigned, wish to express our opposition to this development application, currently lodged with the Council of the City of Sydney, being approved.
Despite the majority of Erskineville residents, the SCC, and the LEC rejecting a similar development plan for a supermarket at 21 Erskineville Road in 2008, the same Developer has lodged this new application.
We believe that, while the proposed new supermarket is smaller than the rejected original, the plethora of negative issues surrounding the new development is substantially the same.
In response, yet again, we state that we do not want Erskineville Village destroyed - noise levels increased, traffic congestion increased, safety for our children and elderly on the streets dramatically decreased, and the business of our small shop keepers decimated – in short, our way of life completely changed by such an inappropriate development.
We therefore appeal to Clover Moore, Mayor of the City of Sydney, and her Councilors, to save Erskineville again, by rejecting this new application for a Supermarket at The Hive on Erskineville Road.
