component is complementary to the motorcycle/scooter repair business, will operate in association
with and will not compromise the site and surrounding area from the intended predominant industrial
activities and is therefore recommended for approval.
However, the proposed Caretakers Accommodation is contrary to the planning scheme
requirements, as the applicant has not demonstrated a genuine operating need for full time
caretaking of the motorcycle/scooter repair and sales business. This element of the application is
not supported and therefore recommended for refusal.
