Key
Findings
and Recommendations
Feedback
from the
community
has been
largely supportive
of
the
proposal. Although
there
aresome
que ries
from the
local
community
seeking
clarification
on
operational
elements
ofthe
proposal,
most of
the
queries
are
from
p e op l e
who
are
supportive
of
retaining
and
adaptively
reusing
the
existing
former
Laboratory building. Many
n
the
local
community
also
e x p r e s s e d
relief that
the
former
residential
development proposal
did
not
progress.
There
is
p r t i c u l r l y
strong
support
for
a
proposal
that maintains
public
access
o
the
surrounding
bushland
setting
and
takes
a
ensitive
a p p r o a ch
tothe treatment ofthe
bushland
reserve
and
the
management
of
bushfire
risk.
Key
elements of
the
feedback received
is
summarised
below.
4.1
ATTITUDETOWARDS
HEADAPTIVE
REUSE
OF
THE
FORMER
NATIONALACOUSTICSTESTINGLABORATORY
Local
residents
appear
to
generally suppo rt
the Church s
proposal
to
reuse
the former
National Acoustics
Laboratory building
if t
continues
to
integrate effectively
with
the
surrounding community.
This
position
appears
to
have
been informed
by comparing
the
current
proposal
with the
previous
residential
development proposal.
The
majority
reported
that
they opposed
the
previous proposal.
The
community
gen era l l y suppo rt
the Church s
intent
to
be
a
alued member
ofthe
local
community.
They
r t i c u l r l y
suppo rt
maintaining
existing
levels
of
community
access
othe bushland
reserve
surrounding
the
site,
as
ell
as
p o t e n t i l l y using
some
fthe Church s acilities for
community
ctivities.
4.2 USE
OF
THE
SITEBY
THE
CHURCHOF
SCIENTOLOGY
There
was
some
nterest
in
better
understanding
the
operational
characteristics
ofthe
Church of
Scientology
and
whatthis
means
or
use
ofthe site. A small
p e rc e n t a g e
of residents stated
they
did not
know much about
the
Church
otherthan
what
they
had
heard
through
the media and
his
created
some
level
of
uncertainty.
4.3 TRAFFIC
AND
ARKING IMPACTS
Although
many
residents
supported
the Church s
plan
to
p r i o r i t i s e
access
o
the site
by
bus
(primarily
from
the
Church s residence at
Dundas),
thereby minimising potential
traffic
and
parking
generation
impacts,
there
was
t i l l
some
que ries
raised
regarding
traffic
and
parking generation
impacts
on
reville
Streetand
Range
Road.
everal residents
referred to
the
level
of
overflow
parking
that
was
previously
e x p e r i e n c e d
on
reville Streetand
Range
Road
when
the
site has
been
operational.
4.4
BUSHLANDSETTING
Many
residents
sought
assurances
that
an
a p p r o v e d
bushfire
management
plan
will be in
place
before
approval
is
given
to
the Church s
proposal. Longer
term
residents
t i l l
fear
the
occurrence
ofanother
large
bushfire
event
(similar
to
the
1997 ushfire where
evacuations
were
required). Neighbouring
properties
also wish to
discuss
potential
tree removal
strategies
that increase
property
safety.
4.5
RECOMMENDATIONS
In
l i g h t
of
positive
feedback received
generally
forthe
proposal
by
the
Chatswood West
community,
t
is
recommended consultation
continue with
local
residents for
the
remaining stage s
ofthe
design
and
planning
process,
including follow-up
newsletters afte r
the
development
pplication
is
submitted.
Consultation should
continue
to
keep
the
community
informed
ofthe
project s
current
status,
provide
an
overview of
feedback received
and outline next
steps.
With
r ega rd
to
the
specific
issues
raised
above,
the
following
recommendations
are
made:
