The statement appears highly subjective and for the benefit of the applicant. Stating that this rezoning is "both appropriate and necessary" is unfounded.

Would the determination of necessary not sit with Council as part of wider planning activities, not through a private submission?

How has the applicant determined that this is necessary, or approriate? There is no clear supporting evidence for this statement.

There are a number of possible zoning changes to allow for further subdivisions (both in Prebbleton and nearby to Lincoln University) being proposed to Council and these need to all be considered together, not as if these are independent and stand alone.

The impact on the community, infrastructure, traffic volumes and supporting services (including the school) will be the sum of the parts, not each in isolation.
