7 Expensive and so sick and tired of waiting for everything . Golf course. Water pressure is shit

Brown water telephone reception Internet Club house / sports bar

6. Why did you rate your satisfaction that way?

11 In all honesty we pay a fortune for not a lot to be honest. T he g ardens in the estate are very

run down and showing their ag e. Pembroke Parade is missing so many plants and all of the

old irrig ation is now hang ing out everywhere. We pay to have this maintained and i dont

understand why we should bother if this is the standard of work we g et in return. I g et it that

security cant be everywhere at once but they dont deter the theives. We reg ularly have cars

broken into. One resident very recently reported on Facebook that his car was broken into

and was found the next morning with all its doors wide open... Did security not patrol that

street and find the car left by thieves like this? why did security not call Police to report it?

T he fact we dont have a country club yet is a major let down and a major concern to property

values. LL have not made contact with me for years now to update me on whats happening

around the estate. If i could have my time ag ain i would not have boug ht land in here.

Community title is an absolute joke

14 Unfinished areas....g olf course club house etc Promises broken or never even

acknowledg ed. Leg al issues ig nored by LL

25 T he parks are out dated and not maintained. It's takes too long for thing s to be fixed. So

many new estates have beautiful, modern parks - we don't. People boug ht here under the

impression there would be a club house. What do we pay for?

40 No dog park, clubhouse, this was all promised by Sandy. One entrance/exit, major traffic

increase since the bridg e has been completed at Greenbridg e. T rucks and contractors

speeding down residential roads - past parks and pedestrians, often children - no speed

bumps, no ownership by Lendlease or willing ness to assist with this problem.

59 We were promised an 18 hole g olf course and country club when we purchased and nothing

to this day has been done. Would have purchased else where

69 T he obvious promises made by lend lease to build a clubhouse Maintenance of streets is

quite poor Lack of discipline overall with rules from community, i.e walking dog s off leads,

amount of dog poo not picked up. fines should be imposed It does not come close to some

of its competitors for a supposed hig h end estate ie Harring ton g rove

87 Strata costs to hig h especially when we still have no club and a park that has been broken for

Months and the other parks are poorly desig ned and lack of equipment for all ag es.

Hig hland park is pointless and needs some proper equipment.

88 Hig h fees, nothing worth it in return

90 No g olf bridg e built the reason I moved here to play g olf

95 Pembroke park has been closed for MONT HS with no action taken on complaints from

residents. General untidiness and unmaintained council strips around several properties with

no action taken when it's been reported. Broken chairs around the pool area that have not

been replaced.

10 0 Pleasant surrounding s, quiet neig hbourhood, security and access to shops and medical

services.

10 3 Lendlease are taking far to long to complete footpath / cart access to link the first 6 holes

and open the g olf course driving rang e. Also Lendlease has failed to build the Country Club

style amenities where residents could experience various social interactions without having

to travel outside the Bing ara Gorg e Estate.

113 We were orig inally sold our land with a promise of a full g olf course 18 holes, a club house

and well maintained properties and public spaces, we haven't after almost 10 years since

purchasing seen those three thing s prog ress in any way.

128 Wheres the clubhouse, shops and everything we were lied to about back in 20 13? Why do

the 2 g irls at pulse think that Covid doesnt affect them hense chang ing the g ym hours to 9-5

to suit them instead suiting the resident times? Why does the albatross bend park have one

swing and the smallest jung le g ym ever created. Why does the surton creesent park not

even have equipment?

140 No parking around the shops Overdevelopment, lots sizes way too small, roads too narrow

Increased crime, not sure what security are doing No maintainence of the g olf course behind

charlton st. Absloute snake haven behind the houses there Dog s always off leash on the g olf

course- dont see any club links doing anythi g to deter

147 Disappointed in maintenance and administration fees when those in charg e do little to

represent us and actually seem to ag ree that lend lease really don't care about the estate

and never will

151 Inaction & apathy relative to enforcement of Manag ement Statement

156 We pay so much for the use of g ym etc but it isn't open 24/7 so I can't use it as much T he

rates are also too hig h

159 Lend lease or club links choose who they want to help and who they don't. Our g rounds

other than Pembroke parade have never looked worse, the shade took forever to replace

and i still don't think it has been fixed correctly

160 Nothing for kids over 5yrs to do

176 For a 12 to 13 year old estate and being community titled there has been no prog ression

with anything since I looked into this place back in 20 0 8. T he place does not look maintained

at all. Have a look at all the non-community title estates along Camden valley way.

Infrastructure is in place well before even all the homes a built. T he small complex of shops

lend lease call a shopping centre, now that is a joke. T here truly needs to be a proper

supermarket in here and other required shops like the estates all along Camden valley.

T hey have so much more, are not community titled and some of them even have less

housing then this estate. T his place does not need people to continually block prog ress but

people in authorative roles that are forward thinkers and are g o g etters. I mean even like all

the overg rown g rass and dead g rass all around the g olf course and bordering the back of

people's backyards looks so unpresentable, nevertheless also being unsafe. And lend lease

stating to some home owners that have broug ht it up as an issue, by sending a

representative out (a young bloke) and advising the residents that this is the look that lend

lease is wanting to maintain. REALLY, this is the look??? Also Steel wiring sticking out of the

g round and g arbag e left along the g olf course bordering the new blocks is also terrible to

see. No proper maintenance or clearing is happening . I can g o on even with what has been

promised for this place but not delivered. Also, the petty arg uments between home owners

and lend lease on such small matters about fencing borders etc and not returning people's

bonds is also a joke. T he whole estate has so many variations of fencing that this stance by

lend lease to some homeowners, is another example of poor manag ement on their behalf

initially before it had g o to this stag e. After 3 or 5 years lend lease have not rig ht to hold onto

people's bond money where certifications have taken place and they sig n off for one side of

fencing for an owner but not the other. T his is a real issue here and lend lease have no rig ht

to withhold people's deposits. Flexibility seems for some and not for others. Ag ain, I am

basing this as an overall living in this estate, not basing it on the Clublinks side of thing s. But

all tog ether alot needs to be done for an estate that should have prog ressed in alot of areas

and also to look immaculate for this side of Sydney. T o be known as a top class estate, the

way it is now it does not meet this at all.

190 No country club yet xx

191 it's starting to look like any other estate with cars parked on the lawns, unkept front g ardens

and lots of rental properties where none of the desig n requirements have been adhered to.

198 What was promised ie g olf course, club house, restaurants, bike track, etc has not been

delivered in a timely manner.

20 4 Cause it's expensive to live here and g et nothing for it

220 What we were promised would be available before we purchased land and built has not

been delivered

6 I have had no issues or dramas with anything

12 T he area g ives off a nice community feel, with well kept public areas, g ood location and the

convenience of local shops

16 Love the place but needs more facilities like shops and restaurants

17 T oo many thing s promised nothing carried out eg g olf club opening of 18 holes and

completion of pathways on g olf course

18 Disappointed that thing s promised by lend lease have never eventuated. But apart from

that, I love living here.

19 I feel that there are many g ood thing s that happen but there could be more done for the

residents by way of policing the bi-laws of the estate.

21 Its a quiet well maintained community that offers security and g ood amenities

22 disappointed that the long promised Country Club appears to be no closer. T his will provide

a location for residents to form closer bonds/friendships. Security of the area lacks cameras.

23 Love the life here but our fees are too hig h ! If we don't use Gym, Pool, T ennis Court or Golf

Course there should be deductions !

24 We need the balance of the g olf course open & the clubhouse built & open

26 g reat place, g reat neig hbors, property value, country feel, distance from city

27 If only we had a country club our estate would be perfect

28 Bing ara Gorg e is a nice and tidy housing estate with g olf course, Country Club, tennis courts,

shopping plaza with supermarket, bakery, cafes and restaurant. It also has a Medical Centre

and Pharmacy.

29 I boug ht in Bing ara Gorg e because of the promise of g olf course facilities

31 Very satisfied with my home, neig hbours, increasing transparency and efforts of Clublinks

and on site staff. Very dissatisfied with continuing situation of Lendlease making all decisions

without accountability, without considering relevancy to owner occcupiers or without g enuine

and comprehensive consultation.

32 Love the area and the people

33 It would have been very satisfied if the club house was being built and the course was

finished... Getting used to broken promises from LL

34 Not the friendliest of community. T oo many who g ets that don't know their facts.

35 Because of the thing s I ranked 1 to 3 of importance - pool, security, maintenance of parks etc

37 I feel that residents aren't always listened to with their concerns. Play equipment in parks

have been out of order for a long time. Country club questions arent being answered

38 T he lifestyle, community feel , safety

39 very happy living here. No real problems

42 Because we love it here

43 I love Bing ara Gorg e, however there aren't many facilities close by. E.g . shopping centres,

g rocery facilities. Yes we have IGA, however their rang e isn't larg e.

45 Cause I am

46 I like living here but would love the country club, and toilets at parks

47 Main concern is the poor mobile service we have here.

50 I haven't had any issues so far with living in the community.

51 I'm satisfied with where we live

53 Absolutely g reat place to live, But the fees charg ed outweig h the benefits.

57 Sig nature g ardens should be part of reg ular maintenance.

60 strong community values. Residents g enerally have respect for our community. As the

community g rows, would expect that this continues.

61 Didn't want to move here orig inally but have found the area , community and General

lifestyle very appealling .

63 I am satisfied but improvements could be made in relation to country club being built and

open etc.

65 Apart from wanting a wood fireplace allowed in my home and a country club to socialise in

the estate is impressive. In reg ards to infrastructure, wilton is lacking important community

infrastructure like restaraunts. Hospitals, shopping centtes and much more. As i am looking to

live here for quiete some time I am hoping the future looks brig ht.

66 Overall a g reat place to live. However I find the community levies excessive.

68 Very happy with living here, came here for a safer, cleaner place to live. Have noticed

rubbish in the ponds. T his is the only neg ative thing so far that I have noticed since moving

here. Otherwise very happy.

71 Location, peaceful living

73 Love living in Bing ara but very slow with clubhouse etc

74 Because we like living here.

75 Would be even better if strata maintained the trees, walkways and landscaping to a hig her

standard.

76 We love it here but there could be a few improvements. Not enoug h public rubbish bins

around the estate to dispose of rubbish means it ends up on the roads and parks. Pembroke

park has been closed for repairs for months... the trees around pembroke on the council

strip are rarely maintained so they can impede you when you walk on the footpath. Still no

country club despite the fact it was sold as a feature of this estate, little thing s but they stop

us from being very satisfied.

77 BG is a lovely place to live in a g reat location.

78 I am satisfied and happy living in the estate. What stopped me from being extremely

satisfied was the lack of information surrounding the future development within the estate.

T ime frames when the club house will be built or even if it will. When will the g olf course

have the 18 holes open.

79 Location to surrounding areas

80 we have only resided at Bing ara g org e less than 3 months

81 Everything I thoug ht it would be except disappointing the club house hasn't been built

82 Would be nice to have the clubhouse and other amenities that were promised completed.

83 Love where we live

89 I would be very satisfied if Pembroke Park was fixed. It's crazy that it had taken this long

93 I love where i live, I just think a few thing s are lacking . Like better parks for children, T he

country club, Before & after school care/child care.

96 It's a beautiful estate, very well presented with g reat services

98 Like the area and it is a nice estate

99 Some of the restrictions are a bit tig ht

10 1 I enjoy were I live, the facilities are g reat.

10 2 It's a beautiful place to live, but a lot of empty promises and residents not following

10 4 Clublinks should be more proactive in maintaining community facilities and ensuring

compliance by residents with lawns and g ardens.

10 5 Everything g oing well, however the mess from leaves falling trees is out of control. We pay

for g arden maintenance, alot of g rass areas are covered in weeds. Security drive around in

routine, same time everyday.

10 7 Most of the reasons I moved into the estate are available. T he finishing of the g olf course

and the clubhouse would be the icing on the cake.

10 8 Most estates would of been totally completed after 5 years

10 9 Dissatisfied with the lack of infrastructure provided by Lend Lease.

114 Bing ara has developed very well over the past few years including the built form, street

scapes and community events like Big Nig ht Out, T asty T unes etc. T he next stag es are now

released so our community will continue to g row and improve and all this makes living in

Bing ara Gorg e extremely satisfying

115 I am happy living here at present, but I would prefer improved facilities as the estate is

g rowing in numbers of residents.

118 GREAT COMMUNIT Y T O LIVE IN

120 Great place to live. Satisfied with the services provided. Believe a lot improvements and

further facilities such as a g olf club/pub would be profitable and a positive for the community.

121 Because when we boug ht our land, Lend Lease said there would be additional facilities in the

next couple of years. We are yet to see these new facilities and I believe that there aren't

any plans for them. T his was dishonest and deceptive. We pay rates to live here without

what was promised, so I feel that it isn't really worth it for what we pay.

123 Love the security and community feel however very disappointed with the parks and lack of

resources with fixing them, not being able to walk to a decent park anymore with three

young children is very frustrating especially when we pay such a heavy community title fee.

124 I love the area and the primary school is close and excellent.

125 Still waiting for clubhouse to be built and the whole 18 holes to be opened. T his has been

frustrating as this is the main reason we boug ht land here. Happy with footpaths, would like

more play equipment for the kids,

129 We're happy here. Love the estate, how it's kept and the people. T he facilities are g ood.

130 We have not had the benefit of a Clubhouse or full 18 hole g olf course

131 Very pleasant

136 We love bing ara

138 We have no country club

139 Would like to see a club/dinner in the estate

141 I feel that our strata fees could be better spent on improving facilities ie parks

142 We love living here , all the facilities

145 Our parks and g ardens are shabby. Corner of Sutton Crescent is a disg race. No plants

replaced in 7 years! Hardly any left. Path needs replacing with something permanent.

146 Because g olf course isn't finished No parking at schools 24 hour security seems inadequate

Not enoug h variety of shops

148 I really enjoying living here

152 It is pleasant and I like the fact our kids can ride their bikes around safely

153 We love our home and walking around the estate is relaxing and beautiful. We have a

toddler who loves the parks and we feel safe

155 We all love this community.

157 love the community, main dislike is the disappearance of any update on the country club

158 Quite place to live. Good for families.

161 Overall this is a beautiful place to live, however with any tig ht knit community, the g ossip and

clique g roups within the estate can sometimes ruin the experience for residents who like to

keep to themselves and be more private.

162 Great community You can see the effort that has g one in

165 Bing ara has everything I need

167 Building and about to move to area but have family in area. I do think there are soooo many

rules for the build and plants etc and throug hout estate there seems to be differences in

what people have been allowed to do or g et passed. I feel this infring es on my enjoyment of

planning my next step. Also there seems to be some very unique people on Facebook who

are quite threatening around animals and too many dog s g etting loose in estate.

168 Nice suburb

169 I just wish that the g olf course and country club where done. Long time coming . Also can use

the g ym during its current hours of operation

173 Initially I was under the impression that the community would be like a country setting , now its

just like housing commission areas fit as many houses as possible in squeeze them in narrow

roads , nobody to police the illeg al parking on the wrong side of the road that seems to be a

Bing ara trait, not enoug h parking to pick kids up for school but yet there is an empty park

with a fence doing nothing , tell me you don't ag ree???

178 I Like the situation of my house but would like a bit more ammenities like a bus route to

Wollong ong ; Campbeltown and Picton and Australia post mail box at the shops- Nearest one

is in old Wilton - plus a nice restaurant instead of just cafes and takeaways would be lovely

181 Happy living here but still waiting for all facilities that were promised.

182 I am pleased to live here but disappointed the country club has not been built

183 I'm happy

187 Enjoy the community

188 Increasing traffic concerns travelling to and from Bing ara.

189 Cars are still parked over footpaths and nothing is done about it.

192 Love the resident facilities and appreciate other aspects of living in Bing ara (I could only

choose 3) but would have chosen more if possible

193 We moved here from acreag e and while we love Bing ara Gorg e we miss the open space of

our previous property

194 I value the presentation of the community and the g arden areas are not always up to scratch

- I am aware that council has a deg ree of ownership of this matter

195 I am happy with all aspects of the community

196 We

199 I always feel safe and love the peace and quiet of the area and have lovely neig hbours and

fantastic facilities.

20 1 T he landscaping has deteriorated to an unsatisfactory standard. A club house has not been

provided as promised. Compliance standards have not been enforced. Lend lease do not

provide development updates to the community. Many failed promises and inaction.

20 2 Many of the promises by the Developer have NOT been delivered at all yet or g reatly

delayed. Opening whole of the g olf course, driving rang e, clubhouse, badly need

somewhere to take family & friends for special occasions, drinks celebrate etc

20 3 Recently purchased in the area and it has all the thing s we were after.

20 8 Could be better, as we were told we would be g etting a country club before we moved in

however it is still not built.

210 Great community

211 We are very happy living here

213 Happy with the community, but still waiting for many promises of facilities to be delivered

214 Because I am satisfied

216 Just enjoy living within the estate, nice feel, not that far from really any where

223 Overall I am happy :) I do wish the g ym could open at 4am so I could g o before work. Other

than that I am happy

224 Need more security

227 Mostly happy with living here. T here's always room for improvement thoug h.

229 Location and presentation of the Estate. Facilities - 24 hr security, customer service point, the

g ym and g olf course. T he cafes

230 Because I have been requesting the g ym be open from at least 4:30 am for the past few

years with no result

231 I think the presentation of the estate needs to be included in our fees g oing forward. I find

that a priority. I also think the kids park needs to be fixed. Iv found over the years thing s take

too long to be fixed in the estate. Like park fences, park equipment, g ym doors etc. I know at

my work I can make a phone call and have someone out to fix thing s that day or at the very

least that week.

232 We love the area, but are disappointed that we still don't have the facilities such as the

country club and bike trails/walking tracks etc that we were promised when we orig inally

purchased.

237 I am happy to live in Bing ara Gorg e because most of the time it is a well maintained estate

and a g reat environment for my children to g row. It does however, come at a hig h price.

238 T he community is very peaceful and has many like minded neig hbours around making it an

altog ether satisfactory place to reside.

240 I feel that Bing ara has a g enuine community feel to it. T his is owed to a few factors: -

Presentation of area - Social/ participation of residents - Efforts by Clublinks etc to create

community / a flow information Essentially, it feels as thoug h all aspects are handled

/maintained in alig nment with the reasons we purchased here in the first place.

241 Quiet. Rural. Well maintained Activities on hand Wonderful coffee places with relaxed

atmosphere

242 I think there could be improvements

243 We like it here

244 Well presented, community events family friendly, close to school, shops and parks

245 T hing s could be improved

246 Fees are too hig h

247 We have lived here for 10 years and while the g eneral presentation is g ood, we still do not

have a complete g olf course and do not have a country club.

248 Overall a fair decision

249 .

250 Bing ara is a g reat community, the community feel is awesome, unfortunately due to COVID

thing s have chang ed a bit, but I think the more community events we keep g oing the better

and we shouldn't let it hinder to much on the way we live our lives.

252 We enjoy the peacefulness , the appearance , our views Easy to access work shops favourite

places from where we live

253 Needs way more community features such as a club house where all residents can g o for

dinner and drinks tog ether and be able to walk home (or have a courtesy bus), dog parks,

more thing s for teens to do so they stop destroying the kids' parks.

256 I love living at Bing ara Gorg e

5 due to the extra properties being built in the coming months / years - security needs to be

increased to more than 1 car and the route they drive needs to be chang ed every time they

patrol. T he recent car break ins is alarming and shows a need for extra security within the

estate. Installation of cameras at the entrances and all parks are definitely needed.

27. Do you have any other comments that you would like to make in relation to thesecurity services at Bingara Gorge?

38

6 No

7 No

8 We would like to know just when the supposed Country Club is g oing to be built. T his never

seems to g et addressed and I know a lot of residents purchased in Bing ara being told it

would commence building within 6 months and this was prior to my purchase in 20 14 at

which time I was told the same. I took photos of the lot when I moved in and I actually took

photos ag ain not long ag o and the lot is still the same. Maybe it is time for the residents to

take a class action. T his question is never answered and continually ig nored.

9 No

10 Definitely not as friendly, use to g et waves all the time..now maybe one g uy does. When first

had baby, I used to leave g arag e open by mistake- 2. Security noticed and knocked on door

to let me know. Now I have left it open by accident 3 times for the whole day- remote needs

fixing . Not ONCE have security knocked on door. Recently it was the other nig ht rig ht after

breakins nearby.

11 why are we paying for a security patrol that is offering home call out services? why cant

these residents find a neig hbour who can do these chores for them?

12 Friendly security staff

17 Love having security driving around the estate especially at nig ht

18 Waste of money. Don't see the point of it. Cars still g et broken into etc as only 1 vehicle

patrolling , so easy to time it if you are a criminal. Also, they have no authority to do anything

anyway.

19 People need to understand that the security can't cover every street every minute of the

day. In g eneral, the security people do a fantastic job and should be recog nised for doing

so?!

20 No

21 Its very disappointing that the g olf course still remains closed after all these years. Having a

perfectly maintained 9holes and not being able to use due to a "bridg e" construction is very

frustrating and doesn't seem viable.

22 cameras around the estate would be a deterrent to the damag e/break in of cars.

23 Perhaps an over 55's or 60 's Villa area would be beneficial for some of us that want to

downsize but stay in the area ?

24 None

25 Due to a recent spate in car break ins, some sig nag e around the estate that clearly states

there is roving security, mig ht be a deterrent. Cameras at entry/exit points too.

26 nil

27 I am happy with security

28 Response time to a trig g ered alarm is fast.

29 Security does the job they are contracted to do but there is community feeling that is not

enoug h as there are incidents happening that provides dissatisfaction.

31 I like the presence of security but do not feel it solves all. As security personnel are unable to

action problems I would hope they are somewhat of a deterrent. What I would be more

interested in from a security point of view is cameras being installed and a security camera

packag e being offered to residents. residents should be bearing most of the responsibility

for their own security.

g uards since we have had a spate of car robberies lately. Perhaps a g roup purchase

opportunity for security packag es...

77 Im g lad that you reviewed the opening hours of the g ym during Covid 19. Leaving the

opening hours on office hours Monday to Friday really did sent the wrong messag e that CL

10 3 I think that the security vehicles - should be unmarked and chang ed every three months. It is

very easy to identify the Security vehicle travelling within the estate. A covert response

would permit Security Guards to proactively move throug h the estate and potentially

identify suspects attempting to break into cars and houses.

10 4 More patrols and slower speeds. Security to monitor school bus stops.

110 Given that we have 24 Hour Security, Incidents that have occurred since we have resided in

compared to previous locations lived at.

111 No

112 No

113 I have resorted to eng ag ing my own alarm technician as after 8 years my alarm still did not

g ive me the functionality I needed. I feel that the security should be introduced to residents

e.g . a profile should be sent to residents so we know who they are and can say hello or have

a conversation if needed. I feel we should be g iven reg ular updates/reports on security

statistics e .g . number of responses, number of hours driving in the estate, Gym checks,

number of other services provided to the estate etc

114 T he security are amazing and quick to respond whenever i have called.

115 I would like to see more active roving patrols, particularly during the evening and throug hout

the nig ht time. As the estate beg ins to g row, it would be g reat if more monitoring is taking

place of vehicles moving in/around the estate. Cameras at the entrance/exit to the estate

and at major intersections would be a g ood deterrent for crime taking place and assist Police

if necessary.

as the party woke up my toddler and my husband and I couldn't sleep.

124 Security seems quite attentive & friendly when driving around.

125 Mostly friendly, have had them alert us to the g arag e been up during the nig ht. T his I found

5 Lack of presence.

32. Why have you rated your satisfaction that way?

52

9 I have only experienced rude interactions and the left arm not knowing what the rig ht is

doing . Poor communication and lack of information provided. Precinct fees are very

expensive, especially now with the restricted g ym opening hours.

11 CL are meant to be here for the resident but i always feel like i am talking to a LL staff

member when ever i ask something . Worry more about the quality of work being carried out

around the estate rather than who parks their cars and trucks on the streets of the estate.

13 I feel like we pay a hig h rate and don't g et much in return, althoug h the facilities are open to

everyone we personally don't use them (have probably used them maybe 5 times in the

past 5 years?) rates should be divided more evenly rather than per lot size and should be

based on what facilities you use and how often. Play equipment is often under maintenance

for extended periods of times, the park at Sutton crescent should have play equipment for

the children, being a round about style park it is more tempting for the children to run around

and g et too close to the road rather than focus on playing in the middle where it's safe, for

that reason we don't use it.

14 T here is a break between LL and Clublinks that doesn't resolve resident issues. We just

never hear anything back from LL.

28 Clublinks manag ement is very g ood.

44 T here is no immediate interaction with residents outside of the Pulse building . T he staff are

often vag ue when answering requests or couch their answers with jarg on. Promises are

made and never kept and issues are not resolved.

57 Not sure they are working for the benefit of residents.

66 Could be doing more. Especially with no events to org anise during COVID

77 At times it feels that CL dosnt care or it is disconnected from its residents needs. Equipment

in the playg rounds left broken and unserviceble for months. Gardens and community area

left unkempt. Heavy T rucks left parked around the estate.

84 I don't know what our money g ets us. Yes it's pays for security but I really don't know what

else it g oes towards. I feel like the Hig hlands doesn't g et as much attention as other precincts

87 N/A

95 As per the thing s mentioned earlier in the survey.

10 4 Clublinks arent proactive enoug h and cost to much for what they provide.

110 Frankly, we g et a lot of huff & puff info to justify the existence. Council is now being eng ag ed

in looking after public spaces and g ardens, heaven help us when the weeds start g rowing

and we wait on council to manag e. With the g rowing population that will lesson the value of a

so called "community". We may as well be just another council precinct. We pay council rates

and with added Clublinks fees to basically maintain a g olf course , g ymnasium &

administration of really what else?.

ResponseID Response

53

115 I don't feel that the feedback previously provided on other surveys is taken onboard. Some

issues raised take to long to process and rectify such as the broken equipment at Pembroke

Park. T his has taken far too long , especially in the current climate, when the children really

need the outdoor play-spaces in the estate.

128 We pay top dollar for thing s that dont even exist. Instead of showing compassion during

Covid you have done nothing but send emails saying YOU MUST PAY. If it wasnt fir residents

blwoing up about the g ym you wouldnt even have bothered yo find out we are exempt. T he

whole org anisation is a joke.

140 Pay a fortune, g et nothing for it. We are fast outg rowing the current facilities

150 they should be doing a lot more

151 Manag ement Statement enforcement is non-existent

159 If we are paying for a community we certainly need more services, our g ardens, paths and

parks g et no attention at all unless you live on Pembroke Parade. Our club was promised so

long ag o and we have all g iven up and are moving elsewhere

167 Just g etting started but no way to pay levies yet and have asked questions to assist with

planning my build and have had no response

168 Can't see the value in the money spent.

169 U

184 I'm frustrated that the one thing my family uses frequently being the park on Chisholm is out

of action. I know there is frustration in the residents too. We do t use any other facility as we

have our own pool, hoops etc. but the park is a nice place to catch up with other children for

my kids. I also feel the maintenance is of very poor quality too. I personally feel that as

Oxenbridg e has become a main road, when orig inally is was meant to be a cul-di-sac, it

should be maintained as Pembroke is. I went down near pulse and the g ardens lacked any

care, weeds and needed new bark in g ardens. T he whole area looks sad, no tiling around

the pool, all the boards up looks terrible and of course lack of a clubhouse. I understand

that's not clublinks issue, I'm sure it's Lendlease, but wish clublinks could push on residents

behalf.

190 Not happy

197 When you contact anyone in reg ards to g etting a bloody bin at g reenbridg e Park they "pass

the messag e on" How bloody hard is it to put a bin in a bloody park!!

20 1 Lend lease has too much control over Clublinks to g ive us confidence that we are g etting the

accurate and timely information we expect on any issues raised in relation to development

and presentation and maintenance of the estate.

229 I feel I'm g etting enoug h from the information I am receiving

231 As I said earlier I think the presentation of the estate needs to be included in our fees g oing

forward, definitely do not ag ree with paying extra fees for any reason as we have extra

blocks and therefore additional fees are being paid from everyone overall. I also think the

kids park needs to be fixed. Iv found over the years thing s take too long to be fixed in the

estate. Like park fences, park equipment, g ym doors etc. I know at my work I can make a

phone call and have someone out to fix thing s that day or at the very least that week. I'd like

to see the fees include the maintenance and presentation as a priority. T here is a g ated

community estate similar set up to ours over Narellan way and the estate looks amazing

when you drive around but our estate is not looking anywhere near that level. Plus our bar is

still not even built. We have been told when more people are in this will be done but it hasn't.

I think if the bar is g ood people will come to it anyway. So the excuse isn't acceptable.

7 Could be one of the premier courses... sick of waiting and the excuses..

14 T he course is desig ned by a Pro for a Pro. As a resident I thoug ht it would be catering to

more retired style g olfers. Plus no-one listens to sug g estions re pin placements ,long g rass

issues or other 'resident preferences'

125 Very dissatisfied that only 9 holes are playable, I have been waiting years for the 18 holes to

be opened. T he g olf bridg e should be made a priority as I have now joined a different club

because it is unsatisfying playing 9 holes twice. Also there is no medal rounds, no pennants

teams, no club championship and no where to have a beer after the round, this is why I'm

very dissatisfied. T he course is in g ood condition, it just needs to be 18 holes as promised

130 T here is next to no variation in types of competitions. Prize money is limited to 2 winners it

should be at least first 4. T he food and drink offering is poor Above is not a g ood look if one

is bring ing visitors to the Community.

147 Would like to see course cater to all levels of play and listen to residents

150 staff don't listen. too much focus on keeping lendlease in the g ood books of

environmentalists, aborig inals etc g olf courses are for g olf. bikes, walkers dog s etc are

annoying and should be banned mow the roug h.

154 Need the 18 holes open

158 Only 9 holes

169 Open the other 9 somehow

248 T here needs to be g reater variety of comps. Maybe there should be a committee of

residents advising Clublinks, more heads are better than one.

limits me from saying very satisfied.

183 Unsure

185 I'm satisfied

187 Enjoy adhoc use g enerally as a result of family members wanting to org anise a g ame socially

196 I believe it is a g reat course well operated by staff

199 Availability

20 1 T he furniture is uncomfortable and therefore uninviting .

20 2 want all 18 holes open & a clubhouse

213 Having a small child has limited the opportunities to use the course but I look forward to

using it ag ain in the future

214 It meets my expectations

216 Very happy playing , and enjoying the course.

238 Players need to be asked to respect the course more and repair divots etc as well as keep

carts well away from the g reens and tee areas. T he competition on Saturday has too many

social players mixed in the tee times.

240 Easy booking experience online. Staff are relaxed about last-minute booking s and very

helpful with all aspects of the experience.

had members as board members. While board membership is not possible at Bing ara

5 I am disappointed in the lack of maintenance within the estate , the children's park is still not

fixed - it has been months. T he lack of maintenance within the estate - other than the main

entrance is definitely lacking and I feel we are not receiving what was promised by paying

our levies. Security needs to be upg raded immensely due to the increase in homes and the

most recent break ins. T he g ym also needs to be open earlier with the hours of operation to

consider ALL workers especially those that are needing to leave early morning including shift

workers as well.

7 Sick of paying the extra money for nothing ..

9 Increase community involvement and provision of information. Having recently purchased

land, there is little communication flowing and you mig ht find that more communication mig ht

decrease the explosions on social media.

APPRECIAT ED where nig ht markets/social events etc could be safely held. No more

townhouses.

14 Get LL to be more open. We are the customers. Currently I would never recommend anyone

buy in a LL community.

17 No cars parked on the streets as the streets are for one way traffic either way only not for

21 A dog park, as there seems to be a larg e amount of dog s that frequent the g olf course and

concerning that residents do not pick up their dropping s an let them roam free

22 would appreciate updates on development time lines, such as the Club House, further land

development and improvements to the road system into and out of the estate.

25 I feel proud and pleased when I drive into Bing ara to arrive home but the strata fees do not

match the benefits of living here especially compared to other strata estates such as

Harring ton g rove. As more houses g o in, the facilities at pulse will not suffice. Parks need to

be updated and modernised. What are kids expected to do at the hig hlands park? A

clubhouse is desperately needed.

28 None.

29 Would like to know why the community levy is basically the same as what we were paying

over 5 years ag o when there were very few homes in the precinct.Now the precinct has at

increased least 5 fold the fee remains the same.

31 I would like to see formal Executive Committees for Precincts in place whilst remaining in the

Initial Period so that we have what was promised to us in all the early sales literature.

44 We have been extremely disappointed at the non provision of ammenities. Also the lack of

care and maintenance around the estate throug h ambig uity as to who is responsible for

different services. T oo many g roups involved...Clublinks...Council...Lend Lease...so confusion

arises. Promises were and are still made and never kept...especially reg arding upkeep of

public area, streets, g ardens and parks and provision of ammenities. More and more houses

are being built making more money for Lend Lease but the supporting promises are being

sacrificed. Public transport was promised but has never eventuates.

77 Overcommunicate with different medium to the residents (emails are not a g reat way to

attend in person. Meeting s should also be scheduled during evening so working people can

attend. Asks security to confront and report young kids that vandalise shared equipments

and dog owners that pick up after their pets. Dumping rubbish and heavy vehicles/boats/

trailers left in the estate is also unsig htly. Install cameras at entry points in the estate and in

parks to reduce anti-social behaviour.

84 I'm very disappointed with the overall look of the Hig hlands as well as other precincts. I feel

like the quality of Bing ara has dramatically decreased in the past few years. With all the new

homes about to be built in the newly released areas I hope they are held accountable to the

building g uidelines. Sometimes I think why don't I move to old Wilton, not pay any fees but

just enjoy the facilities, parks, g olf course, etc. I don't like the increased number of trailers

being parked on the roads around the estate and the lack of action being taken. Why aren't

resident held accountable for the lack of maintenance and street appeal of their properties?

Why aren't residents who have lived in the estate for years held accountable to complete

initial landscaping ? My neig hbours has lived here for 3 year and hasn't done an ounce of

landscaping ! It bring s down the appeal of the street (I understand this is a Lend Lease related

issue but it extremely frustrated that people aren't held accountable for none compliance)

Generally more information from lend lease: What is the status of the country club? What is

the status of the next 9 g olf holes? And g olf bridg e? Is there any time frame. Happy to be

contacted directly: cameronscholte@ live.com.au

85 T he school announcements are too loud, should be for the children to hear, not the estate.

Parents during drop off and collection speed throug h street and are abrupt and tail g ate.

T hey park on lawns. A drive throug h and collect would be a better option throug h the car

park? T he influx of non estate people aren't respectful of our estate, it's annoying as we pay

to live here.

we built our homes to their g uidelines and keep our end of the barg ain.

92 T he strata rates should have been re-assessed due to the COVID pandemic and the

110 Will add to the frustration of others about the promised facilities near Pulse. Lend Lease are

happy to dig up more land for real estate, however there promises mean absolutely zero in

the estate.

111 I comment every year about the parking of caravans and boats on the streets of Bing ara.

Some of these streets are extremely narrow and difficult enoug h to neg otiate. Boats,

caravans trailers etc I understood were not to be parked on the street or council strips. Why

is this allowed to continue? T here is also an issue with people using Pembroke Parade for

ride sharing . People who presumably don't even live here park for the day, and sometimes

for several days at a time, and enjoy the 24 hour Security. Can't there perhaps be 2 hour

limited parking to prevent the main entrance becoming a carpark?

112 Would love to see public transport available and the country club built

113 Public transport is appalling , I feel more should be done to lobby for public transport

facilities, we need buses to Picton, Campbelltown and/or Wollong ong , especially for the

young and the elderly. Many Young adults g o to Wollong ong university with no way of

travelling there except by car. T here are zero public transport options to g et to Wollong ong .

Even Picton, g iven we don't have our own club house there are very limited ways to g et to

Picton other than drive. T here are many elderly people here perhaps some activities aimed

at older residents.

117 Fix parks - Pembroke has been out of action for ag es Clean rubbish from parks Leave tennis

court lig hts on for long er if kids are happily playing and not being disruptive. Not much else

for teens to do and 8pm lig hts out is a bit unfair if they aren't causing any disruption to

anyone.

119 Still waiting for Golf Club somewhere to g et a meal with friends that live here also.

120 No

121 More communication about the facilities that were promised is needed. T he recently

handling of the g ym opening hours with covid reg ulations was poor. It sent a messag e to the

residents that the clublinks staff did not care enoug h to keep pulse open for workers that

work outside the usual hours. Only after the residents shared their dissatisfaction did the

staff say they would accommodate hours outside the usual 9-5pm. Lucky we are exempt due

to being strata titled, but this just came across poorly. We are paying a premium to live here,

so it would be nice to have people who work here that care about the place and the

residents.

123 More shops, more activities and events please

124 I think the park in the hig hlands requires play equipment for children & would like to see the

country club built asap

125 T here may need to be speed humps put in on fairways drive as cars speed coming from

184 Would love honesty about a clubhouse, something like Menang le would be g reat! It would

g enerate income and attraction to the estate. Residence could hold functions there, they

could do wedding s, parties and would be a lovely place to have dinner or Sunday breakfast

with residents/ friends. Our fees are rising , but we aren't g etting anything extra for our cash.

In fact, with our park closed, We're actually g etting less. Making all of Bing ara aesthetically

pleasing , not just Pembroke pde. Oxenbridg e needs speed humps- kids can't play because

cars fly as seen with the young lady that flipped her car, someone could have been seriously

hurt, if someone was walking by or kids on their bikes, it could have ended trag ically. It's a

dang erous road- a visitor reversed out my driveway and nearly g ot demolished, as we live

on the bend you can't see cars come when they're hitting at least 70 -80 k's (no

exag g eration either)

important aspects to what make Bing ara different and appealing

190 Country club with music

192 I like living here and g enerally most people are friendly. I think that people who break the

rules such as parking on the footpath, having boats, trucks on both sides of narrow streets in

the estate need to be formally reminded and have notices put on their cars for blocking

access. I would like more sig nag e around the estate about the ducks and reminding people

visiting the estate to slow down.

230 Having effective use of the pulse g ym is part of my mental health manag ement and is of

g ym membership elsewhere is a pain.

231 Please fix the children's park as a priority

233 I'm not g oing to sug g est anything new, however I sug g est that Lend Lease deliver on all the

promises they made 8-10 years ag o. Given this, I don't believe anything that is said from

Lend Lease or Clublinks in relation to Lend Lease (as a mouthpiece for Lend Lease). For

example, 18 holes of g olf being open for play - not delivered. T he balance of the facilities

(eg clubhouse/function area etc) - not delivered. T he former Clublinks manag er "T ina" was

happy to Grandstand at a presentation (held at Wilton Public School) about clubhouse

construction starting by year end, and that was probably only 5 years ag o - please look out

the window and let me know how that construction is g oing . As for the g ym opening at 4am,

that is not necessary, people don't need to speed throug h residents streets at 3.55am to g et

to the g ym at 4am. If the g ym was in a commercial area fine, but not in a residential area. T he

outcome of the recent upg rades and cleaning of the g ym was very g ood. T he manag ement

of the g ym hours during the recent Covid 19 rules chang es was also g ood consider the

circumstances and chang ing nature of the rules. Dancing - the parents of the dancing children

need to stop hang ing out near the cardio equipment and the entrance to the g ym, especially

during time of social distancing .... are they even residents?

237 I like living in Bing ara Gorg e. I dont like how the strata fees have been worked out. I only live

on an 80 0 square meter block and pay $2340 a year. I know there are very larg e houses on

very larg e blocks such as in the pembroke precinct that pay sig nificantly less. I have

questioned this numerous times only to be told that in order to chang e my unit entitlements I

will have to g et my block re-surveyed and therefore the entire precinct would need to be

re-surveyed. My neig hbour that lives on a larg er block around the corner, just 4 houses

down, pays much less that I do also. I fear that when I try to sell my house one day, other

houses will be preferred over mine because the fees of mine are very hig h.

238 Slow the speed limit to 40 kph.

250 I love the community fee, the local school and shops are sediment! I would live to see more

local events, market stalls, live bands, arts and crafts, kids activities, the more the better,

especially in times like these, yes, we have to be careful, but if we can make it happen, we

should!

252 Love where we live and how relaxed we feel althoug h needs to be more equitable in way all

is maintained We never realised also it would be so divided in precincts - doesn't bring for

unified living in years to come We thoug ht we were fairways not subdivided into 'builders

triang le ' Golf Park !

253 More bins needed around the streets, it's not nice walking the dog and having to carry the

poop the whole way. New AT M provider needed that doesn't rip you off, one of the big

banks would be nice - that one is well known to g ive you less than you attempted to

withdraw, but still take the money from your account, and the provider does not care when

you call them.

254 Would love to see more thing s for older children such as pump tracks, skate park ect I feel

there is nothing for children as they g row play g rounds are ok for small children but older

children have nothing and I feel this only encourag es them to g et up to no g ood as they g et

board. Would also like to see more shops (eg woolwoths, aldi ect) and eateries as well as

more care facilities for both early childhood and school ag e. 1 child care with before and

after school care and a few family Day cares is not enoug h for the g rowing population of

young families in which the estate appeals to.

255 A lot of emphasis is put on the landscaping on Pembroke and Fairway Drive (which look

lovely), but other areas are neg lected. And why have thE Gymea Lillie been removed, just to

put in more of the same old, common plants seen everywhere. T he standard has dropped in

the estate- lots of people g etting away with thing s that were initially not allowed. Front yards

with no g ardens or bushes, messy vacant blocks etc

257 Where is the clubhouse? Where are the next 9 holes of g olf? Need to work on

understanding there own reg ulations... double standards when it comes to refunding g arden

bond back.... lend lease should be ashamed
