Reason for this Petition

The following residents of the Australian Capital Territory draw to the attention of the Assembly that the density of housing proposed by the Government through Draft Variation 334 for the Red Hill public housing site is unacceptable, as is the proposal for four and six storey buildings on it.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the Assembly request those Ministers responsible for Draft Variation 334 to redraft it in consultation with the community, based on RZ2 zoning with a maximum of two storeys on all boundary areas and RZ3 zoning with a maximum of three stories at the central area of the site, with existing development codes applying to the whole of the residential areas of the site without variation; and, in addition, to provide a holistic and accurate assessment of impact to roads, traffic, parking, sewerage, water and drainage.
