Minor Change Application Letter

As highlighted above, the proposal results in minor changes to the site layout and design to facilitate a safer and
more functional parking arrangement for a Transport depot.

The rearrangement of the bus parking plan and access arrangement has allowed for an additional two (2) bus
charging spaces whilst not compromising the ability for safe access and manoeuvring throughout the site.
Furthermore, the reduction in the width of the exit access driveway complies with Council standards for heavy
duty vehicle crossings, as shown in Standard drawing RS-051.

The exterior façade of Workshop and ancillary office will continue to achieve a high-quality industrial outcome,
using concrete tilt panelling and aluminium batten screening to effectively respond to sub-tropical climactic
conditions, maximising comfort and safety for staff. The proposed changes are consistent with intended planning
outcomes, delivering an exterior façade consisting of muted environmental tones broken up by contrasting
materiality and design elements.

It is proposed that the Office and Workshop plan is reconfigured, resulting in a 40.7m2 reduction in the overall GFA.
This reduction in GFA allows for an increase in the total landscaped area which will appropriately screen the
proposed transformer enclosure along the Production Street frontage and soften the visual impact of the built
form. Furthermore, the reconfiguration of the amended plans allows for an improved carpark arrangement,
providing greater distinction between the staff and bus areas and a clearer pedestrian entrance, whilst retaining 26
car parking spaces.

Refer to the revised Architectural Plans prepared by Tyson Design Studio provided in Attachment 4.

The existing trees along the site frontage are required to be removed in order to facilitate the site layout of the
development. The development provides sufficient replacement tree planting along the frontage. Refer to the
Landscape Concept Plan prepared by Tyson Design Studio provided in Attachment 5.

The proposed changes include the addition of one (1) additional bioretention basin in the southeast corner of the
site. Please refer to the Addendum to Stormwater Management Plan and Civil Drawings prepared by ALTA in
Attachment 6 and Attachment 7 for further detail. The Addendum to Stormwater Management Plan has been
prepared to achieve compliance with Condition 25 of the existing development approval.
