Stop Anthony Roberts Choosing Developers Over Residents!

Sign this petition to say NO to The Code

The State Member for Lane Cove and NSW Planning Minister Anthony Roberts MP has introduced the Medium Density Housing Code (The Code).

The Code starts on 6th July and:

  • Makes it easier for developers to build multi dwelling housing (such as terraces and townhouses) in areas that have been zoned for low density homes;

  • Terrace housing is currently prohibited in the low density areas of Lane Cove;
  • Means a developer does not need to seek Council approval;

  • Means elected Councillors don’t get to act in your interests;

Anthony Roberts will turn your quiet residential street of houses into a busy thoroughfare of terraces and townhouses.

You won’t have a say!

Sign this petition to say NO to The Code

To: The Hon. Anthony Roberts MP, Member for Lane Cove, Minister for Planning

Dear Mr Roberts,

We, the undersigned, believe:

1) Terraces and townhouses should not be permitted in areas currently zoned for low density housing (free standing homes);

2) Residents should get a say about how their communities are developed;

3) It should be the responsibility of Local Councils, with input from the local community, to make the final decision about which areas are zoned for low and/or medium density housing.

We request the State Member for Lane Cove and NSW Planning Minister Anthony Roberts suspend the The Code immediately and give power back to residents.

    We, and many others, are becoming concerned about the number of development sites taking place in our municipality. Our narrow roads are congested, the traffic is horrific especially at peak hours and the lack of parking creates havoc and causes accidents. Schools are overcrowded. Stop building for the sake of greed.

    Lane Cove is being ruined by the existing policy, and this will obviously make it worse. Lets get rid of the inept and corrupt Libs before its too late.
