Dear Sirs,  
My general comment is that many of the main points contained in my statement have been
largely overlooked?  
My specific comments on the individual representations received are as follows:  
Planning  
I strongly disagree that the proposal would result in an intensification of use.  
Although the commercial use of the land and buildings had cease when I bought the land and
property in 2000, I have continues to use since 2000. I have aceed the land to use the building
as a workshop and for storage Images attached). The land has also been used to store my yacht
‘Papajay’ which was stored on a trailer during winter months (image attached with Lorne Place
in the background). I have also built a number of temporary structures which were enjoyed by
me children when growing up.
Title ARG 18046 also clearly demonstrates through title that I have a servitude right of
pedestrian and vehicular access over the roadway tinted brown on the title plan. You can also
see the continuation of the unadopted road into my land, tinted red..
Summary
I have the sole legal right of vehicular and pedestrian access over the unadopted road which I
have used since 2000, and will continue to use to deliver and uplift materials and goods to and
from the building and land.
The single vehicular access I CURRNETLY ENJOY will continue, and it was my intention to build
a small single dwelling for my own use, As previously stated I am happy to condition any
planning approval to limit access and parking to one vehicle which will add NO ADDITIONAL
VEHICULAR ACCESS TO THE LAND and NO INTENSIFICATION OF USE  
Roads Department  
My comments to planning apply also to the roads department. I have already previously written
to the owners to confirm that I was happy for them to continue to park outside Lorne Place, and
the road is of sufficient with to all me vehicular access as I currently enjoy. A planning  condition
allowing only one vehicleto park on the land would mean there is no change to the current
arrangement and  NO INTENSIFICATION OF USE. The comments that access and parking will
be impacted by my proposal are flawed and unsafe.
