Modification 3 Cold Shell Extension

What a waste of money. But now it's knocked down, they better do it right - no lines for food and drinks like Metlife stadium in NY. Old SFS bar and food arrangements were terrible.

Dear Rebecca,
The City wishes to make no comment on the application for the Cold Shell Extension of Sydney Football Stadium (SSD 9835 MOD 3).
Kind regards,
Reinah Urqueza

I am concerned about the amended signage condition which enables the final details of the building identification signage to be approved by
the Planning Secretary, consistent with the intention articulated in the approved EIS. While I have not referred back to the EIS, I am very concerned about the possibility of electronic illuminated signage which may include advertising and which may operate at times other than when events are held. It appears to me that the modification may be a softening of requirements.

During the very long lead up to the SFS it was made clear that external signage would be at a minimum. This was to protect the integrity of the surrounding residential area and the parklands. Any increase in size or brightness of the signs would diminish the surrounding area. Certainly advertising was emphasised as undesirable and only the name of the facility ie Sydney Football Stadium was acceptable.
Here there is an attempt to change this basic commitment and gives rise to the potential of more signage and therefore more intrusion to the surrounds.
I strongly oppose any change to the previously agreed position.
