One for our Sharkie supporters..
Been a Dragon supporter contray to what people may think, i hope it goes ahead, for the only purpose to keep the sharkies going, i like my local derby and also don't want the rivalry with Sharks and Dogs, Tigers, Souths, Roosters even Storm to dissapear, league would become boring...
Sutherland Shire Council planning officers have delivered a scathing assessment of the Cronulla Sharks’ development proposal.
The project ‘‘has a number of significant failings’’, their report, which has been placed on the council’s website, said.
A special meeting of the environment and planning committee, to be held on Monday, will consider the report and decide whether to forward it to the Planning Department before the December 5 deadline for public submissions.
‘‘The site simply cannot accommodate such an intensive form of development without adverse effects,’’ the report said.
While the design had been ‘‘tweaked’’ in response to feedback, it had not been comprehensively altered or the intensity reduced.
‘‘The desire for the club to continue and the NRL team to be successful has aroused the support of many in the community,’’ the report said.
‘‘However, many submissions in support fail to recognise the significant environmental impact this development will have on the locality.
‘‘A centre in this location is a poor planning outcome.
‘‘The financial viability of the club is not a planning consideration.’’
A response is awaited from the Sharks.
